FDA Recalls 67,000+ Cases of Power Stick Deodorant Over Safety Concerns
Hey everyone, I’ve got an important update you’ll definitely want to hear about—especially if you’ve got Power Stick deodorant in your bathroom cabinet right now. The FDA has just announced a recall of over 67,000 cases of Power Stick roll-on antiperspirant deodorants, and it’s something to take seriously. These products were pulled off the shelves due to cGMP violations —that’s short for Current Good Manufacturing Practices . Basically, the products didn’t meet the FDA’s required safety and quality standards.
So, here’s what’s been recalled:
-
Power Stick for Her Roll-On Antiperspirant Deodorant, Powder Fresh (1.8 oz) – over 21,000 cases
Also Read: -
Power Stick Invisible Protection Roll-On Antiperspirant, Spring Fresh (1.8 oz) – more than 22,000 cases
-
Power Stick Original Nourishing Invisible Protection Roll-On Antiperspirant (1.8 oz) – almost 23,500 cases
These deodorants are made by A.P. Deauville , based in Easton, Pennsylvania, and have been sold nationwide at Dollar Tree, Walmart, and Amazon . The issue, according to the FDA, is that the products failed to comply with specific manufacturing protocols. Now, they didn’t mention exactly which rules were broken or what the direct risk is, but when something doesn’t meet those cGMP standards, it raises serious red flags about potential contamination or inconsistency in ingredients and quality.
What does that mean for you? If you’ve got any of these products in your home, the safest route is to stop using them immediately . The FDA hasn’t released details on consumer next steps like refunds or returns yet, but they usually advise people to discard recalled items and check their site for updates.
A.P. Deauville, the manufacturer, did release a statement saying they take pride in their product quality and that their deodorants are made in FDA-regulated facilities. But clearly, something went wrong this time. And when it comes to products we apply directly to our bodies—especially near sensitive skin areas—we have every right to expect they’re safe, effective, and made with care.
This isn’t the first recall we’ve seen lately either. It follows a string of other FDA recalls involving food items and even medications, all related to manufacturing safety issues. So it’s definitely a good reminder for all of us to stay informed and double-check the products we bring into our homes.
If you’re unsure about a product you have, especially if it’s one of the Power Stick varieties I just mentioned, head to the FDA’s official website . They have more detailed info on recalled products and how to report any adverse reactions.
Stay safe, stay alert, and always take a second look at that label—it might just save you a lot of trouble.
