Plain-English summary
Johnson & Johnson Consumer, Inc. is initiating a voluntary, Class II recall at the retail level in the U.S. of select COACH Self-Adhering Sports Wraps, BAND-AID Brand First Aid Products SECURE-FLEX Wraps, and BAND-AID Brand First Aid Products HURT-FREE Wraps. The recall is due to a labeling error regarding the presence of natural rubber latex.
The current product labeling claims that the items are "not made with natural rubber latex." However, the manufacturer recently became aware that natural latex was used as a base ingredient in the early-stage manufacturing process. While this process reduces the allergic protein found in natural latex, the label must be updated to accurately reflect the ingredient history.
The recall is distributed nationally. Consumers should check their products for the specific codes 100497502, 381370079286, or 3813700497530024. Individuals with a known latex allergy should exercise caution when using these products.
