At least Perrigo have made the announcement of the recall right on their home page. It should be pointed that no illness or injuries have resulted from this. It appears the metal came from a tabletting machine that the company noted was wearing prematurely.
The FDA has issued a statement on the matter and here is the list of recalled lots from the FDA website as well a list of places where the product is sold.
