Procter & Gamble Recalls Over 8 Million Laundry Detergent Packets Due to Packaging Defect

The recall affects Tide, Gain, Ace, and Ariel brands, with concerns over child safety prompting immediate action.

Procter & Gamble is recalling 8.2 million bags of laundry detergent packets due to a defect in the child-resistant packaging.
The defect could allow the packaging to split open, posing a risk of ingestion and potential harm to children.
No confirmed injuries have been reported, but there were four cases of children accessing the pods, including three ingestions.
Consumers are urged to secure the recalled products out of reach of children and contact P&G for a full refund and replacement child-resistant bag.
The recalled products were sold across major retailers in the U.S. and Canada, including Walmart, Target, CVS, and Amazon.
