Check your kid’s medicine — some has been recalled after yeast contamination was found
After finding a microbial contamination “due to the presence of yeast,” Church & Dwight recalled one lot of TheraBreath Kids Strawberry Splash, an anti-cavity oral rinse.
The company-written, FDA-posted notice says the recalled lot of 16-ounce bottles, No. PA3083011, was sold from May 31 through Sept. 2 on Amazon.
“The product poses no risk to healthy children, while it could potentially pose a health risk to immune compromised children,” the recall notice said.
If you have this rinse, don’t use it. Call Church & Dwight at 800-981-4710 to get a full refund or to get questions about the recall answered, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Eastern time.
