The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is recalling more than 67,000 cases of Power Stick antiperspirant deodorant.

Deodorant users should thus double-check the label on their purchases, advised the Ledger-Enquirer.

The product was made by Pennsylvania-based manufacturer A.P. Deauville.

They have been voluntarily recalled due to an undisclosed manufacturing defect, according to ABC News.

A.P. Deauville launched the recall on July 10.

The three antiperspirant products affected are: Power Stick for Her Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant Powder Fresh; Power Stick Invisible Protection Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant Spring Fresh; and Power Stick Original Nourishing Invisible Protection Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant.

The product has been sold at Walmart, Amazon, and Dollar Tree.

The FDA report said the recall was due to Current Good Manufacturing Practice (CGMP) “deviations.”

These strict standards ensure consumers of the safety and quality of pharmaceutical products – including deodorants.

According to the agency’s website, regulations ensure that a product is safe for use and contains the ingredients and intended potency as advertised.

Consumers who purchased these Power Stick deodorants from Walmart, Dollar Tree, or Amazon are advised to stop using them immediately if they are listed in the recall.

The Ledger said the recall stemmed from manufacturing practice deviations.

“No specific health hazard – like contamination – has been reported,” the website added.

The FDA said its experts “regulate the quality of pharmaceuticals very carefully.

“A consumer usually cannot detect (through smell, touch, or sight) that a drug product is safe or if it will work.

“Testing alone is not adequate to ensure quality. In most instances testing is done on a small sample of a batch.

“It is important that drugs are manufactured under conditions and practices required by the regulations to assure that quality is built into the design and manufacturing process at every step.”

Which deodorants have been recalled?

The FDA has announced the voluntary recall of more than 67,000 cases of Power Stick antiperspirant deodorant made by Pennsylvania-based manufacturer A.P. Deauville.

The recall, initiated applies to the several personal hygiene products, sold nationally via Walmart, Amazon, and Dollar Tree.

They are:

  • Power Stick For Her Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant (Powder Fresh, 1.8 oz / 53 mL); UPC: 815195019313; lot numbers: 032026B011, 032226B031, 051626C241, 061526C882, 071226D371, 071226D381, 082526E341, 082826E402
  • Power Stick Invisible Protection Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant (Spring Fresh, 1.8 oz / 53 mL); UPC: 815195018194; lot numbers: 031726A991, 041226B561, 062026C901, 062026C911, 071026D351, 071026D361, 071326D391, 111626G231
  • Power Stick Original Nourishing Invisible Protection Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant (1.8 oz / 53 mL); UPC: 815195018224; lot numbers: 101225D781, 032926B281, 032826B221, 041126B531, 062226D011, 070626D301, 070626D333, 111026G051, 111326G091, 111626G221

Those with any of the above products should stop using the deodorant immediately.

You should return the recalled deodorant to the shop it was purchased from for a refund, or contact A.P. Deauville for further help.

It added, “If the failure to meet CGMP results in the distribution of a drug that does not offer the benefit as labeled because, for example, it has too little active ingredient, the company may subsequently recall that product.

“This protects the public from further harm by removing these drugs from the market.

“While FDA cannot force a company to recall a drug, companies usually will recall voluntarily or at FDA’s request.

“If a company refuses to recall a drug, FDA can warn the public and can seize the drug.”

It is the latest in a series of recent recalls in the US, including swimming pools after toddler deaths were linked to a feature that could lead to children climbing in by themselves.

Meanwhile, Kroger customers have been warned their health could be at risk after product labels were printed with mistakes.
