Oxygen Development Llc has recalled approximately 12,216 units of Life Brand Clear Action Acne Treatment Concealer Stick (salicylic acid), 1.9g. The recall was initiated because stability testing after six months showed the product was superpotent, meaning it contained higher levels of the active drug, salicylic acid, than what is specified on the label. These affected sticks were imported for Shoppers Drug Mart and Pharmaprix locations in Canada.
Using a superpotent acne treatment can cause unexpected skin irritation, redness, or peeling due to the salicylic acid concentration being higher than the safe, intended levels.
