Medline Antifungal Cream Recalled for False Paraben-Free Labeling

Medline Remedy Clinical antifungal cream is recalled for labeling that falsely claims to be paraben-free while the product actually contains parabens. About 1,786 tubes nationwide are affected.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class II labeling issue with no reported illnesses or injuries. The discrepancy between the 'Paraben Free' label claim and the actual paraben content is a minor labeling error consistent with moderate-severity recalls.
