Dollar Tree Recalls Burn Relief Gel Due to Failure to Meet Child Resistant Closure Requirement

Agency Publication Date: December 10, 2015

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Dollar Tree has recalled about 325,000 units of Assured Burn Relief Gel (lidocaine hydrochloride 2.5%) because the packaging is not child-resistant as required by federal law. The product was sold for $1 at various Dollar Tree-affiliated stores nationwide from March 2015 to October 2015. While no injuries have been reported, consumers should immediately stop using the product and return it for a full refund.

Risk

The gel contains lidocaine, which poses a serious risk of poisoning to young children if swallowed. Because the cap is not child-resistant, children can easily open the tube and ingest the medication.

What You Should Do

  1. Locate the Assured Burn Relief Gel tube (lidocaine hydrochloride 2.5%), which is approximately 5 inches long and weighs 0.7 ounces (20 grams).
  2. Check the back of the blue and white outer box for UPC bar code 6 39277 09311 0 to confirm your product is part of the recall.
  3. Immediately stop using the recalled gel and store it in a location that is completely out of the reach and sight of children.
  4. Return the affected gel to the store where you purchased it for a full refund.
  5. For further questions, contact Dollar Tree at 800-876-8697 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit www.dollartree.com and click on 'Product Recalls' under the Customer Service section.
  6. Call the CPSC Hotline at 800-638-2772 for additional safety information.
