What's being recalled

RootStim Beard Growth Serum, 5% Minoxidil

Units: About 16,900

This recall involves RootStim Beard Growth Serums spray bottles. The serums come in black boxes with orange and white lettering and have an orange mustache icon on its front panel. The boxes have "Beard Growth Treatment" and "5% Minoxidil - Biotin & Rice Water" printed on its front, directions and warnings printed on its sides, and "Distributed By RootStim LLC" on the bottom. The bottles are black with black spray cap, transparent top cap, and an orange and black wraparound label bearing the same information as the box.

The problem, in CPSC's words

The beard growth serum contains minoxidil, which must be in child-resistant packaging, as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. The serum's packaging is not child-resistant, posing a risk of serious injury or death from poisoning if the contents are swallowed by young children.

Incidents and injuries reported to CPSC
