Drop a few bottles of saline nasal spray into your Amazon cart recently? Check on any that you bought because the product has just been recalled, and it could cause serious illness.
On June 11, Beekeeper’s Naturals announced on the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) website that it is voluntarily recalling its Beekeeper’s Naturals Saline Nasal Spray. The spray was sold exclusively through Amazon, and it’s used as a rinse to ease sinus congestion.If you bought this product any time from April 2 to April 24, 2026, you should stop using it.
The reason for the recall
Beekeeper’s Naturals reports that it mistakenly shipped 585 bottles of the spray to Amazon before product testing on it was available. The company says that the bottles ended up testing above its acceptable microbiological limits for yeast, and may contain Aspergillus spp., a form of mold that can cause a lung infection called aspergillosis.
The recalled bottles were produced by a third-party manufacturer, according to the brand. The lot number of the recalled spray is 5950; the spray is packaged in a single-unit, 1 fluid ounce bottle (30 mL).
The affected products’ expiration date is 02/2028—you can see that date, plus the lot number on either the back or the bottom of the bottle. Beekeeper’s Naturals and Amazon have already notified the consumers who bought the spray about the recall, but you should still make sure that you and everyone in your household know what the affected product looks like.

What health problems could using this nasal spray cause?
If you have a weakened immune system or a lung disease, Beekeeper’s Naturals says that there’s a “reasonable probability” that using a spray contaminated with Aspergillus spp. will cause serious and life-threatening infections, like invasive sinusitis and lung infections. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), aspergillosis, the infection that happens when you breathe in Aspergillus spp., won’t cause healthy people to get sick. If you are susceptible, though, you could indeed develop different types of lung infections. Symptoms may range from mild to severe, and include nasal congestion, headache, fatigue, and coughing up blood. Worst-case scenario: invasive aspergillosis, the most serious type of the infection, can spread through the body. People who’ve had organ or stem cell transplants are at risk for this.
As of June 16, 2026, Beekeeper’s Naturals says it has gotten four reports from customers who may have experienced adverse reactions after using the recalled spray. These customers reported sinus congestion, irritation, or infection.
