About 9,400 Jaloma pacifiers are being recalled. The pacifiers are banned under federal law. They failed federal safety tests, come apart, and can pose a choking hazard to infants and small children.
There has been at least one report of a pacifier nipple that detached while the pacifier was in the mouth of a seven-month-old. The child was not injured.
The pacifiers, which measure three inches long and about 1 inches across the base, are pink, blue, green or white plastic with a yellow nipple. The pacifiers have a circular handle and the shield is labeled Jaloma. The nipples are filled with a sugary substance.
The pacifiers were sold at various small Mexican supermarkets and commercial retailers nationwide from March 2004 through August 2004 for between $0.35 and $1.
Consumers should immediately take the pacifiers away from young children and return them to the store where purchased for a full refund.
Consumer Contact: Consumers should call Natura Products Downey collect at (323) 726-9098 between 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. PT Monday through Friday.
The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
