Aveeno Recall in US... Funny thing..

[shmeelady]

OMG... I just about had a heart attack here...
So a few weeks ago I made a complaint to JNJ after my son had an crazy reaction to the Aveeno Calming Lotion (lavender). I have not heard ANYTHING from the company. I was logging on their webpage to find a number so I could remember to call them tomorrow and of course FIRST thing I see was...

JANUARY 27,2012: US AVEENO® BABY RECALL: This recall does not impact AVEENO® BABY product sold in Canada. Johnson & Johnson Consumer Companies, Inc. is voluntarily recalling from retailers one lot of AVEENO® BABY CALMING COMFORT® LOTION.

Holy crap on a cracker... I nearly had a heart attack.
Then I realized it was a US recall...

I don't think I was ever so worried in my life. Now I need to call the company and see what on earth the deal is, I mean it's a US recall but funny how I just had an issue with the product a few weeks back....

Wasn't it bacterial contamination?

That could explain the crazy reaction - I would call them again and tell them your concern and read to them the control number from somewhere on the bottle it will tell them if it is part of the recalled batch! And safe to say I probably wouldn't use it. They'll probably advise you the same and will usually send some FPC's.
