Comments on: FDA Warns About Maalox Mixups http://fightcolorectalcancer.org/research_news/2010/02/fda_warns_about_maalox_mixups We envision victory over colorectal cancer Wed, 23 May 2012 21:37:02 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Kate Murphy http://fightcolorectalcancer.org/research_news/2010/02/fda_warns_about_maalox_mixups/comment-page-1#comment-61749 Kate Murphy Wed, 23 May 2012 18:37:19 +0000 http://fightcolorectalcancer.org/?p=7540#comment-61749 We don't know. Last December, 2011 Novartis shut down their manufacturing facility in Lincoln, Nebraska where regular Maalox is manufactured. They expected at that time that there would be shortages on the shelves. So far we have had no more information about more shipments. Maalox was not recalled because of a problem with it or its labeling, so if you can find it anywhere, you can probably use it safely. It appears that Amazon.com may have some liquids and chewables. You should check to see if what you need is available there. We don’t know.
