Perrigo is recalling its H.E.B. vitamins with iron. The vitamins contain iron, but do not have child-resistant packaging as required by federal law, which could cause serious injury or death if ingested by a child.

The vitamins were sold at H.E.B. retail stores, only in Texas, from December 2003 through April 2005 for about $4.
Consumers should keep this product out of the reach of children and return it to the nearest H.E.B. retail store for a refund or replacement.
