  Tylenol scare
The Tylenol scare was an incident in the autumn of 1982 in which five women and two men living near Chicago, Illinois died after ingesting Tylenol (acetaminophen) capsules.
It was determined that a culprit had entered various stores and pilfered packages of Tylenol from the shelves, adulterated their contents with a cyanide compound at another location, and put them back into the stores after doing this.
While at the time of the scare the market share of Tylenol collapsed from 35% to 8%, it rebounded in less than a year, a move credited to J&J's fast and aggressive reaction.
