Folks in GA, check your cabinet for this deodorant recalled from Walmart, Amazon and Dollar Tree
Deodorant users should check the label on their purchases immediately.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced a recall of more than 67,000 cases of Power Stick antiperspirant deodorant from Pennsylvania-based manufacturer A.P. Deauville,
The recall was voluntarily initiated by the manufacturer due to deviations from Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) standards, which ensure product safety and quality.
“CGMP provides for systems that assure proper design, monitoring, and control of manufacturing processes and facilities,” the FDA says on its website.
