Overview
- ANMAT published a disposition that prohibits the manufacture, sale, distribution and advertising of all Maxus domisanitary products after finding they were offered without required sanitary registration.
- The prohibition covers a wide range of household cleaning and maintenance items, including disinfectants, floor cleaners, powdered bleach, dish detergents, degreasers, fabric softeners, pool chemicals, car shampoos and waxes, stain removers and air fresheners.
- The agency opened a sanitary inquiry and named Johana Vanina Otero as the person responsible while tracing distribution to a residence at Lisandro de la Torre 4117 in Caseros and notifying provincial health authorities and consumer protection bodies to coordinate removals.
- The same round of controls ordered removal of BIOTECHNOLOGY-branded medical supplies and two implants labeled by Bioprotece SA after inspections in Cipolletti found falsification and lack of traceability, raising patient safety concerns.
- ANMAT advised consumers to stop using Maxus products immediately and to buy only items with official registration numbers, full manufacturer identification and proper labeling as regulators increase scrutiny of goods sold on social media and e‑commerce platforms.
