First Aid Research Recalls Maximum Strength Bacitraycin Plus Ointment With Lidocaine Due to Failure to Meet Child Resistant Closure Requirement

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The hazard

The packaging is not child resistant as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. The pain relieving ointment contains lidocaine, posing a risk of poisoning to young children if they put it on their skin or ingest it.

What to do

Consumers should immediately place the recalled ointment out of the reach of children and contact United Exchange, the product's importer, for instructions on how to receive a full refund from the place of purchase.
