You'll want to make sure you get a full refund.
Approximately 9,000 units of the anesthetic cream were sold online at Walmart.com and Amazon.com between Jan. 2021 and Jan. 2022, generally priced at $7, the CPSC said. But the product is dangerous to have at home due to its lack of child-resistant packaging.In accordance with the Poison Prevention Packaging Act , lidocaine is required to come in child-resistant packaging, as the product could be poisonous if it is opened and ingested by a young child.
And even though there haven't been any reported injuries, consumers are instructed to contact Mohnark Pharmaceuticals for a refund and instructions on how to properly dispose of the lidocaine. If you are a"known purchaser," the company will be reaching out to you directly, the CPSC said. You can call Mohnark Pharmaceuticals toll-free between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Eastern Time Monday through Friday at 866-611-5206. The CPSC also lists Mohnark's website as a contact method, www.mohnark.com, but the site is"currently under construction," and didn't allow access to recall information prior to publication.
