“Senna Laxative Recall: Label Mix-Up with Naproxen Sodium.” GovInfoNow, updated October 11, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/40928-senna-laxative-recall-label-mix-up-with-naproxen-sodium. Based on FDA recall #D-0342-2018 (https://api.fda.gov/drug/enforcement.json?search=recall_number:%22D-0342-2018%22&limit=1).

Why it’s dangerous

The hazard is a labeling error where bottles intended to contain Senna Laxative were filled with Naproxen Sodium tablets. Taking Naproxen Sodium when expecting a laxative can lead to unintended drug exposure, potential allergic reactions, or ineffective treatment of constipation.

Who’s affected

Consumers who purchased 100-count bottles of Senna Laxative manufactured by Magno Humphries Laboratories and sold nationwide in the USA are affected. Individuals relying on this product for laxative purposes or those who cannot take Naproxen Sodium are at particular risk.

How to tell if you have this one

Check your bottle for the UPC Code 3 07610 22020 1 and Lot # 352300. The expiration date on the bottle is Exp 01/19. The label should say Senna Laxative (sennosides) tablets, 8.6 mg, but may contain Naproxen Sodium 220 mg tablets.
