Heritage Store issued the recall for two of its products sold at health food stores and online from October 2010 to December 2023 

The recalled mouthwash contains ethanol in a concentration that must be in child-resistant packaging, as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA), according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

The packaging of the products is not child-resistant, posing a risk of poisoning if the contents are swallowed by young children, the CPSC said.

The total number of bottle subject to the recall is 102,100.

The recalled products, both sold in 16-ounce bottles, are:

  • Hydrogen Peroxide Mouthwash –Wintergreen, UPC code:  076970080144
