Procter & Gamble's product recalls
22 official recall notices between Sep 2023 and Apr 2024 were matched to Procter & Gamble and brands it owned at the time, including Secret, Old Spice, Ariel, Gain and Tide.
Each notice concerns the specific products, sizes and lot codes it names. A recall does not mean that other Procter & Gamble products are affected, and a count of notices is not a measure of safety: one incident can produce a notice for every pack size.
Covers only notices from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration enforcement reports (openFDA), USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service recalls, UK Food Standards Agency food alerts and U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recalls that could be matched to Procter & Gamble: the recalling firm must be Procter & Gamble, a parent or a subsidiary, and for a brand the brand name must appear in the product description. Method.
