Heritage Store, part of Nutraceutical Corp., issued a recall on February 29 of its Hydrogen Peroxide Mouthwash in Wintermint and Eucalyptus Mint flavors due to a lack of child-resistant packaging, as reported by CNN and others.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) website states that the mouthwash contains over 3 grams of ethanol, requiring child-resistant packaging under the Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA). The CPSC warns that the product, packaged in 16-oz bottles, poses a poisoning risk if swallowed by young children. The packaging features brown bottles with white lids and pink and white labels featuring the Heritage Store logo and flavor information.
