Johnson &
Johnson is recalling more than 2,000 tubes of its Aveeno Baby Calming Comfort
Lotion after a U.S. Food and Drug
Administration test indicated levels of the bacteria exceeded
specifications.
The bacteria,
called coagulase-negative staphylococci, is naturally occurring and common to
the scalp and skin.
The recall is
from retailers in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Louisiana,
Mississippi, Tennessee and Texas. Consumers who would like a refund or coupon
or who have questions about the recall can call a company customer center at
1-877-298-2525.
J&J
said the product was being voluntarily withdrawn in Kansas and eight Southern
states out of "an abundance of caution" and that its potential for
harm was "remote."
