"Nuby" Gel-filled Teethers Recalled

!±8± "Nuby" Gel-filled Teethers Recalled

Parents and other caregivers of small children should be aware that the company Luv N' Care Ltd. has recalled almost 20 styles of gel-filled teethers because they might be contaminated with bacteria. The gel inside these teethers may contain Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus circulans. Adults exposed to these bacteria generally do not get sick. However, if the teether is punctured and infants or children with weakened immune systems ingest the gel containing these bacteria, they could suffer stomach pain, vomiting, diarrhea, and occasionally more serious disease. The recall affects 15 styles of gel-filled teethers sold under the brand name "Nuby", two sold under the "Cottontails" name and one sold under the "Playskool" name. UPC codes for these styles can be found below. Consumers who have these teethers should stop using them immediately and either throw them away or return them to the place of purchase for a refund. For questions, contact the company at 1-800-256-2399, ext. 3106. FDA Patient Safety News: October 2009 For more information, please see our website: www.accessdata.fda.gov
