Aromatics International Recalls Wintergreen Essential Oil Due to Failure to Meet Child Resistant Packaging Requirement; Risk of Poisoning (Recall Alert)

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Aromatics International is recalling about 550 bottles of Wintergreen Essential Oil because the packaging is not child-resistant. The oil contains methyl salicylate, which is required by law to have safety caps to prevent accidental poisoning. Consumers should immediately store these bottles out of reach of children and contact the company for a free replacement child-resistant cap.

Risk

The current bottle caps are not child-resistant, which means a young child could easily open the bottle and swallow the contents. Swallowing methyl salicylate can lead to severe poisoning or even death in small children.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your bottle to see if it is Aromatics International Wintergreen Essential Oil in a 5 mL, 15 mL, 30 mL, or 100 mL size with batch numbers WIN-104 or WIN-105 located on a dot sticker on the cap.
  2. Verify the UPC code on the label: 817697021443 for 5 mL bottles or 817697021375 for 15 mL bottles.
  3. Immediately move any affected bottles to a high, secure location where children cannot see or reach them.
  4. Contact Aromatics International for a free replacement child-resistant cap by calling 888-234-9641 (7 a.m. to 6 p.m. MT, Monday-Friday), emailing team@aromatics.com, or visiting www.aromatics.com and clicking on 'Important Safety Notice - Wintergreen Oil'.
  5. For additional questions, contact the CPSC Hotline at 800-638-2772.
