Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: Scored 3 under the risk-of-harm criterion: packaging that is not child-resistant poses a poisoning risk to young children, with no incidents reported.
Plain-English summary
Ruahouine Hair Growth Serum is being recalled. The serum comes in 60ml (2.11 fl oz) transparent amber dropper bottles, with "Ruahouine", "Minoxidil Hair Growth Serum" and "5% Minoxidil With Biotin" printed on labels wrapped around the bottles.
The serum bottles contain minoxidil, which must be in child-resistant packaging as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. The packaging is not child-resistant, posing a risk of serious injury or death from poisoning if the contents are swallowed by young children. No incidents have been reported.
About 25,000 units were sold online at Amazon.com from January 2025 through July 2025 for about $10.
Consumers should immediately secure the bottles out of the sight and reach of children and contact Ruahouine for instructions on destroying them and receiving a refund or replacement, pouring the contents into the trash and emailing a photo of the bottle in the trash to [email protected].
