Two lots of the over-the-counter antacid drug Tums are being recalled due to the possibility of contamination with metal fragments, according to a notice published by CVS Pharmacy last week.

CVS Pharmacy said that multiple lots of Tums Ultra Assorted Fruit Chewable Tablet bottles are being recalled on a voluntary basis “due to potential contamination with small metal pieces.”
