This medication contains lidocaine but is sold in non-child-safe packaging creating risks of serious injury or death from poisoning if swallowed by young children.


About 50,330 jars were sold nationwide at Walmart and Target stores, and online at Target.com from April 2024 through October 2025.


Immediately secure these recalled ointment jars by moving them out of the sight and reach of children. Contact Plantimex by phone at 1-855-752-6869 or by email at [email protected] to receive a free replacement child-resistant lid.
