Advantice Health is recalling approximately 222,984 canisters of Dermoplast Anesthetic Pain & Itch (benzocaine and menthol) Spray because the packaging incorrectly states the net weight. The canisters are labeled as containing 2.75 oz (78g) of product, but they actually contain only 2.0 oz. This recall affects both individual canisters and full cases of 12 units sold nationwide in the United States. While the product inside is safe for use, the labeling error means consumers are receiving less medication than advertised on the package.
The risk is low; however, the labeling error causes consumers to receive approximately 27% less product than stated on the canister, which may lead to unexpected depletion of the medication during use.
