The Irish Medicines Board (IMB) yesterday began recalling all packs of Nurofen Plus tablets from Irish wholesalers for checking after some were sabotaged in the UK.
Five packets found in Britain and Northern Ireland were found to contain an anti-psychotic drug after being tampered with.
The IMB said it was taking the move as a precautionary measure. Pharmacists were asked to check all packs of Nurofen Plus on their premises before selling them.
The IMB said all unaffected packs may be sold to the public.
