[Posted 03/28/2007] Woodridge Labs and
FDA informed consumers and healthcare professionals of a recall of
all lots of its DermaFreeze365 Instant Line Relaxing Formula and
DermaFreeze365 Neck and Chest products. The products were recalled
because certain lots tested positive for Pseudomonas aeruginosa
bacteria. The bacteria may cause serious eye infections, urinary
tract infections, respiratory system infections, dermatitis, soft
tissue infections, bacteremia, bone and joint infections,
gastrointestinal infections and a variety of systemic infections,
particularly in patients with severe burns and in cancer and AIDS
patients who are immunosuppressed. Because DermaFreeze365 Instant
Line Relaxing Formula may be applied in the area of the eye, there
is a possibility that if the recalled product is inadvertently
introduced in the eye, it could result in serious eye infections
and, in rare circumstances, possible blindness.
