Johnson & Johnson Stock Loses $20 Billion After More Asbestos Found in J&J Baby Powder – Call the Asbestos Legal Center with Questions – 1-800-970-3272 -with Questions
Johnson & Johnson on Friday announced a voluntary recall of a single lot of its baby powder over concerns the product may contain asbestos.
In a statement posted to its website, the company said the recall was issued “out of an abundance of caution” after testing by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) indicated “the presence of sub-trace levels of chrysotile asbestos contamination” in a single bottle of the powder purchased from an online retailer. J&J claims the level of asbestos detected was “no greater than 0.00002 [percent].”
