Recall details

Recalling firm

Johnson & Johnson Consumer, Inc.

Reason for recall

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 products. The current labeling claim states not made with natural rubber latex which needs to be updated based upon recent awareness that natural latex was used as a base ingredient in the early-stage manufacturing process, which reduces the allergic protein found in natural latex.
