Sanitizer Recall
The hand sanitizer recall issued by Clarcon results from tests run on many products they produce showing evidence of unsanitary conditions during manufacture or packaging.
What specific concerns does FDA have about these products?
Analyses of several samples of over-the-counter topical antimicrobial skin sanitizer and hand protectant products revealed high levels of various bacteria, including some associated with unsanitary conditions.
Some of these bacteria can cause opportunistic infections of the skin and underlying tissues. Such infections may need medical or surgical attention, and may result in permanent damage.
FDA finds the inspection results particularly concerning because the products are promoted as antimicrobial agents that claim to treat open wounds, damaged skin, and protect against various infectious diseases.
The inspection uncovered serious deviations from FDA’s requirements.
