RootStim minoxidil hair treatment recalled over child poisoning risk
RootStim recalled about 11,000 minoxidil hair regrowth treatment bottles sold on Amazon from August 2025 through February 2026. The bottles are not child-resistant, which federal packaging rules require for minoxidil, so young children could open and swallow the product. No injuries have been reported.
