The following recalls have been announced: RUGBY CHILDREN'S PAIN & FEVER CONCENTRATED DROPS, B-NIMBLE STROLLERS & CIRCO ALOMA INFANT GIRLS' SANDALS.
B-NIMBLE STROLLERS
DETAILS: Child strollers imported from China by Britax Child Safety Inc. of Charlotte, N.C., sold at juvenile product and mass merchandise stores nationwide and online retailers between September 2010 and June 2011 for about $200.
WHY: An audible click heard when the brake pedal is pressed can give a false impression that the brake is fully engaged. When the brake is not engaged, the stroller can move unexpectedly, posing a risk of injury to the child occupant.
INCIDENTS: Britax has received seven reports of the brake not being fully engaged. No injuries have been reported.
HOW MANY: About 20,000 in the United States and 800 in Canada.
FOR MORE: Contact Britax at 888-427-4829 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. EDT Monday through Friday or visit the firm's website at www.britaxusa.com.

WHY: The decorative plastic flowers can detach, posing a choking hazard.

RUGBY CHILDREN'S PAIN & FEVER CONCENTRATED DROPS
DETAILS: Children's pain and fever drops made by Altaire Pharmaceuticals Inc. of Aquebogue, N.Y., and distributed Rugby Laboratories Inc. of Duluth, Ga., sold at drug stores, grocery stores and other retailers nationwide between January 2009 and June 2011 for about $4.
WHY: The over-the-counter medicine contains acetaminophen, which calls for child-resistant packaging as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. Although the original bottle has child-resistant packaging, a separate dropper unit provided for dispensing the drug to children does not. When in use, a child can access the medicine, posing serious health problems or death if more than the recommended dosage is consumed.
INCIDENTS: None reported.
HOW MANY: About 898,000
FOR MORE: Contact Altaire Pharmaceuticals at 800-258-2471 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. EDT Monday through Friday.
