A lot of disinfectants without perfume has been withdrawn after the FDA tests found that they can contain several impurities. The withdrawal comes from Artnaturals, which reminds 10 lots of its disinfectant for 8 oz hands on the possible problem, pointing out that it has voluntarily done “without caution.”
The recovery notice does not detail what impurities were identified in the hand disinfectant sample, but reveals that they are naturally in the environment. According to artnaturals, long -term exposure to impurities can cause cancer in some people, including blood cancers and leukemia. Several medications have been withdrawn during the past year due to similar problems related to impurity.
Artnatural bottles covered by this retreat are made of transparent plastic and have the name of “hand disinfectant without aroma.” The products were manufactured in early May 2020 and have an expiration date of May 1, 2022; Although the bottles are now quite outdated, it is possible that some consumers still have them in their possession and some stores may still be selling them.
Consumers who believe they can have one of these bottles of retired hands disinfectants should consult the recovery notice published on the FDA website to obtain the complete list of identification details, including UPC numbers, lot numbers and manufacturing lots numbers.
According to the company, its products sold through Heb, Amazon, Target, Walmart, Costco, Publix and Ritaid are not affected by this retirement. It is not clear which retailer received these lots, but Artnaturals says that he has alerted the company and has arranged that the disinfectant for hands are returned. Consumers are advised to still have any of these bottles to throw them. In addition, buyers can communicate with the company to obtain a refund.
