UNDATED (WKRC) – Nearly 800,000 nasal spray bottles were recalled over a poison risk.<\/p>\n

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC<\/a>), about 786,000 bottles of travel-size Afrin nasal spray are being recalled due to a packaging issue that poses a poisoning risk to young children, federal safety officials said.<\/p>\n

(Consumer Product Safety Commission)<\/p>\n

The recall involves unexpired 6 mL bottles of Afrin Original Nasal Spray manufactured by Bayer HealthCare LLC of Whippany, New Jersey. According to the notice, the bottles contain an imidazoline, which requires child-resistant packaging or specific warning labels under the Poison Prevention Packaging Act.<\/p>\n

Officials said the affected products do not have child-resistant packaging and lack the required labeling, creating a risk of serious injury or illness if the contents are swallowed by children.<\/p>\n

The recalled products include bottles marked \u201cAfrin Original Nasal Spray\u201d and \u201c1\/5 FL OZ (6 mL)\u201d with lot numbers 230361, 240822, 241198, 250066, 250152, 250646 and 250831. No other sizes are affected.<\/p>\n

The products were sold at convenience stores and travel hubs, including airports, from September 2024 through April 2026 for about $7 to $9.<\/p>\n

Consumers are advised to keep the bottles out of sight and reach of children and to request a refund through the manufacturer\u2019s website. Customers will need to submit a photo of the product before disposing of it.<\/p>\n

No injuries or incidents have been reported in connection with the recall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"UNDATED (WKRC) – Nearly 800,000 nasal spray bottles were recalled over a poison risk.
