Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Adobe is recalling about 500 sets of high-powered magnets that were distributed as part of a promotional package for its Adobe Connect product. The promotional materials include 12 silver, spherical magnets (about 5 millimeters in diameter) attached to a green cardboard sheet inside a green box with a black lid. These magnets were distributed for free in November 2012. Consumers should immediately stop using these magnets and either discard them or contact Adobe for instructions on how to return them.

Risk

If two or more magnets are swallowed, they can attract each other through intestinal walls, causing the intestines to twist or puncture. This can lead to serious internal injuries such as obstructions, perforations, sepsis, and even death, potentially resulting in lifelong health effects.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your promotional materials for the Adobe Connect 'Effective Collaboration is Magnetic' package, which comes in a green box with a black lid.
  2. Verify if the package contains 12 silver spherical magnets, approximately 5 millimeters in diameter, magnetically attached to a green laminated cardboard sheet with the text 'With Adobe Connect it all just clicks' printed around them.
  3. Immediately stop using the magnets and keep them out of reach of children.
  4. Either discard the magnets or contact Adobe to receive instructions on how to return the magnets.
