Soothing 12 Hour Nasal Decongestant Spray Recall Due to Contaminated Excipient
Perrigo Company PLC is recalling Soothing 12 Hour Nasal Decongestant Spray nationwide because the product was manufactured with a contaminated excipient that was recalled from the supplier.
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: The FDA has classified this as a Class II recall. The source text does not report any illnesses, injuries, or deaths resulting from the contaminated excipient. The recall addresses a manufacturing process deviation (contaminated excipient) without evidence of actual harm, which falls under the "low-risk contamination" criterion for a Moderate severity rating.
