Reckitt Recalls More than Three Million Bottles of Airborne Gummies Due to Injury Hazard
RB Health (US) LLC ("Reckitt"), of Parsippany, New Jersey
Hazard
When opened for the first time, pressure build up in the bottle can cause the cap and underlying seal to pop off with force, posing an injury hazard.
Remedy
Consumers with an unopened bottle(s) should not attempt to open the product and should contact Reckitt to return the unopened bottle(s) to receive a full refund. A postage-paid label will be provided. Bottles that have already been opened are not subject to this recall as they would have released any pressure build up and do not present an injury hazard.
