Haleon US Holdings LLC is recalling 46,692 tubes of Sensodyne PRONAMEL (Potassium nitrate 5%, Sodium fluoride 0.25%) Active SHIELD Toothpaste for Sensitive Teeth. The recall was initiated because the outer carton is correctly labeled as "Fresh Mint," but the toothpaste tube inside is incorrectly labeled as "Cool Mint/Whitening." Despite the label discrepancy on the tube, the toothpaste itself is the Fresh Mint variety indicated on the outer box.
The risk is considered low because the toothpaste inside matches the outer carton; however, the labeling discrepancy on the tube may cause consumer confusion regarding the flavor or specific whitening properties of the product.
You have 2 options:
The outer carton is labelled Fresh Mint. The tube is labelled Cool Mint/Whitening. The toothpaste inside the tube is Fresh Mint as indicated on the outer carton.
