Popular baby product recalled over glass fragment fears
A 'critical' product recall has been issued after a customer complained about glass fragments inside a bottle of baby teething powder. Weleda Australia is recalling a batch of the Weleda Baby Teething Powder 60g. The company thinks there was a fault during the packaging of the batch '(B) 231302' which may have caused glass fragments to spill into other bottles from the same batch. The expiry date for the affected product is 11/2026. 'If glass fragments are present in the powder and applied to an infant's gums, they could cause discomfort, pain or minor injury,' the Therapeutic Goods of Australia (TGA) recall statement said. 'In more serious cases, there is a risk of choking or internal injury, including damage to the gastrointestinal tract, which may require urgent medical attention.' No other batches were affected by the recall. The powder can be bought online and in chemists across Australia, including major pharmacies like Priceline and Chemist Warehouse and in discount department store Big W. The TGA advised that customers should stop using the product immediately. Customers can return the bottle to the store they bought it from for a replacement or refund. Weleeda is a multinational company headquartered in Switzerland which makes a range of naturopathic focused products. The same product was previously recalled in 2019 after soft, white slivers of plastic from the cap had the potential to contaminate the product. The TGA also advised to contact Weleda Australia at assist@ or phone 1300 551 454 for further information.
