A recall on antibacterial hand soap is expanding.
Laval-based Avmor Ltd. is recalling 19 more lots of its Antimicrobial Foaming Hand Soap with Triclosan, and it is also recalling alcohol-free hand sanitizer.
Last week Avmor recalled one lot of soap because it was contaminated with Pseudomonas bacteria.
So far nobody has been reported ill, but the bacteria can be dangerous to those with weak immune systems, especially those with cystic fibrosis, cancer, diabetes, burns, lung disease or HIV/AIDS.
The Antimicrobial Foaming Hand Soap (Triclosan 0.3%) being recalled is available in 1L and 4L containers.
