    Recall: Choking Hazard for Babies

    A toy made for babies should never include parts that can kill them.

    The BABESIDE Doll and Stroller Children’s Toys have been recalled because they violate the federal small parts ban for toys intended for children under 3. The toy’s tiny pacifier can become a deadly choking hazard, and the plush bear’s eyes can also detach and be swallowed. About 2,200 units were sold on Amazon.  

    If your child has this toy set:

    • Stop using it immediately.
    • Take the plush bear and pacifier away from children.
    • Contact the seller for free replacement accessories.
    • Follow the recall instructions before disposing of the recalled parts.  

    Children explore the world with their hands—and their mouths. That’s exactly why these safety standards exist. They aren’t suggestions. They’re the minimum requirements for keeping children alive.

    If you know someone with a baby or toddler, share this alert.

  • Nara Infant Formula Recalled Over Possible Botulism Risk

    Nara Infant Formula Recalled Over Possible Botulism Risk

    Parents, Check Your Formula Shelf

    Nara Organics has recalled all lots of its powdered infant formula because of a possible contamination risk linked to Clostridium botulinum, the bacteria that can cause infant botulism.

    Infant botulism is rare, but it can be devastating. Symptoms may include constipation, poor feeding, a weak cry, loss of head control, difficulty swallowing, and breathing problems. In severe cases, it can be life-threatening.

    Parents already spend enough time worrying about whether their babies are eating, sleeping, growing, and thriving. They should not have to wonder whether the formula they purchased could put their child at risk.

    The recall affects all lots of Nara Organics Powdered Infant Formula currently on the market. Consumers should stop using the product immediately and review the manufacturer’s recall instructions.

    What Parents Should Do

    • Stop using the recalled formula immediately.
    • Check lot information and recall details.
    • Contact your pediatrician if your child has consumed the formula and is experiencing symptoms.
    • Follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding refunds or replacement products.

    Food and infant product recalls are exactly why consumer safety standards exist. When products intended for the youngest and most vulnerable consumers may pose a risk, parents deserve clear information and immediate action.

    Scarlett will continue monitoring recalls, FDA alerts, and consumer safety warnings so you don’t have to spend your day digging through government websites.
