FDA alarmed after contamination discovery in Family Dollar warehouse, take action if you’ve visited a store
A massive warning has been issued for Family Dollar stores in six states, resulting in the temporary closure of more than 400 stores.
A rodent infestation at a Family Dollar warehouse in West Memphis, Arkansas, triggered a massive recall, the Food and Drug Administration said on its website.
The FDA warned consumers that “several categories of FDA-regulated products purchased from Jan. 1, 2021, through the present from Family Dollar stores in Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri and Tennessee may be unsafe for consumers to use.”
The FDA release offered a wide-ranging list of products not to use.
“Some examples of these products include human foods (including dietary supplements (vitamin, herbal and mineral supplements)), cosmetics (skincare products, baby oils, lipsticks, shampoos, baby wipes), animal foods (kibble, pet treats, wild bird seed), medical devices (feminine hygiene products, surgical masks, contact lens cleaning solutions, bandages, nasal care products) and over-the-counter (OTC) medications (pain medications, eye drops, dental products, antacids, other medications for both adults and children),” the FDA release said. – READ MORE
