The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) voluntarily recalled more than 67,000 cases of Power Stick deodorant sticks because of a deviation from Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). A.P. Deauville’s recall covers a series of roll-on deodorant products that were extensively marketed throughout the United States.
Products Affected
The following are included:
- Power Stick for Her Roll-On Antiperspirant Powder Fresh – about 21,265 cases.
- Power Stick Invisible Protection Roll-On Spring Fresh – about 22,482 cases.
- Power Stick Original Nourishing Invisible Protection Roll-On – about 23,467 cases.
The deodorants were distributed through big stores such as Walmart, Dollar Tree, and internet retailers such as Amazon. Since there has not been a single incidence of contamination, injury, or health hazard reported, the recall was done to provide quality and safety to the consumers.
Reason for Recall
The FDA examination revealed the products were n’t being manufactured in complete agreement with cGMP rules, which are set to give assurance that high situations of safety, quality, and hygiene are being maintained. Indeed when the threat is n’t to health over a short- term duration,non-compliance with manufacturing rules can undermine the responsibility of the product.
Lot Numbers
Customers need to look for the lot numbers that are printed on the packaging to identify if their product is being recalled. A complete list of affected lot numbers containing codes like 032026B011, 071226D381, and 082826E402 has been put up by the company.
What Consumers Should Do
These consumers are directed to discontinue using the products and return to A.P. Deauville or their store for refund or exchange. The recall is made in an effort to avoid any risk and to place emphasis on quality control on personal care products.
