Zicam nasal products recall starts
Wed Jun 24, 2009 8:49am EDT
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Matrixx Initiatives has started to notify U.S. customers of its recall of nasal versions of its Zicam cold remedy, a week after U.S. regulators told the company to stop selling the products.
Matrixx said on Wednesday that it was in the process of formally notifying retailers, wholesalers and distributors of its recall of all Zicam Cold Remedy Nasal Gel and Zicam Cold Remedy Gel Swabs, even as the company maintained it "vigorously disagrees" with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration over allegations that the products are not safe and were unlawfully marketed.
The company "is conducting this recall because of its desire to cooperate with the FDA," Matrixx said.
