| | Rocky Hill, CT -- Henkel Corporation ("Henkel") is voluntarily recalling 180 bottles of its 4.2 ounce Alterna Bond Repair Leave-in Heat Protection Spray, because it has the potential to be contaminated with Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc), which poses little medical risk to healthy people, but can cause an increased risk for illness or infection in people who have certain health problems, such as weakened immune systems, chronic lung diseases, chronic granulomatous disease, or wound infections. Patients with underlying lung disease (especially cystic fibrosis) might be at increased risk for severe infections with Bcc. The potential for product contamination was noted after testing performed by Henkel revealed the presence of Bcc in some 4.2 ounce bottles of Alterna Bond Repair Leave-in Heat Protection Spray. While Henkel has received no reports of harm or injury in connection with this product, the company is proactively recalling the product. If you have experienced any symptoms, or have any medical questions associated with this recall, please consult your physician immediately. | | | |
