Baby product sold at Priceline and Chemist Warehouse recalled due to choking risk
A popular skincare and wellness brand has issued a recall on one of its baby products following a shocking discovery that may cause choking or internal injury. Weleda Australia Pty Ltd is recalling one batch of Weleda Baby Teething Oral Powder after a fragment of glass was found in one bottle.
A packaging process fault may have resulted in glass fragments appearing in other 60g bottles from the same batch, (B)231302, which has the expiry date 11/2026. No other batches are affected by this recall.

If there are glass fragments in the powder and it is applied to an infant's gums, it could cause discomfort, pain or minor injury. There is also a risk of choking or internal injury in more serious cases, including damage to the gastrointestinal tract, which may need urgent medical attention.
The product has been sold at stores such as Priceline, Chemist Warehouse, and Harris Farm Markets, among others.
Consumers are advised to immediately stop using the product from the affected batch and return it to the place of purchase for a refund or replacement. Customers can also contact Weleda Australia via email at assist@ for further assistance.
Anyone concerned about the use of this product should consult their health professional immediately.
This comes just a few days after the TGA issued a recall on a popular baby product sold at Chemist Warehouse, Priceline and Terry White Chemmart over fears it can overheat and produce 'smoke and fumes'. Felton Grimwade & Bosisto's Pty Ltd is recalling all batches of the Euky Bear Warm Steam Vaporiser, model number EBSV2013, due to a 'quality problem' causing it to overheat.
