U.S. Marshals Assist FDA in Seizing Clarcon Skin Sanitizing Products

U.S. Marshals  assisted the FDA in seizing Clarcon skin sanitizing products in an attempt to prevent future use of contaminated skin  products.

According to a statement issued yesterday by the FDA, the U.S. Marshals have seized all skin sanitizers and skin protectants at the Clarcon Biological Chemistry Laboratory’s Roy, Utah facility.

The FDA is warning consumers not to use any Clarcon Products because they contain harmful bacteria and are promoted as antimicrobial agents that claim to treat open wounds, damaged skin and protect against various infectious diseases.

Clarcon voluntarily recalled the affected products, marketed under several different brand names, in June after an FDA inspection revealed high levels of potentially disease-causing bacteria in the products.

U.S. Marshals assisted the FDA in seizing the Clarcon skin sanitizing products, along with their ingredients,  after Clarcon did not agree to promptly destroy them.
