Henkel Capital S.A. de C.V. initiated this recall after internal microbiological testing revealed the presence of *Klebsiella oxytoca* in some batches of Tec Italy Shampoo Totale (33.81 fl. oz./1 L bottles). While no user harm or injuries have been reported to date, the potential risk necessitated this precautionary measure.
*Klebsiella oxytoca* is a bacterium commonly found in the environment. While often harmless, it can cause opportunistic infections in humans, particularly affecting the eyes, nose, and skin. Individuals with weakened immune systems face a higher risk of complications from exposure.
The recall specifically targets the Tec Italy Shampoo Totale packaged in green 33.81 fl. oz./1 L bottles marked with Lot # 1G27542266 and UPC 7501438375850. These products were distributed through channels in New York and California and may have been sold directly to consumers at the retail level or distributed further.
Consumers who have purchased the identified Tec Italy Shampoo Totale should immediately stop using the product. Check the bottle for Lot # 1G27542266. If you have an affected bottle, return it to the place of purchase for a full refund. If you experience any adverse symptoms after using the product, consult a physician immediately.
Anyone using the recalled shampoo lot is potentially affected. However, individuals with compromised immune systems, open wounds, or existing skin conditions may be at a higher risk of infection if exposed to the bacteria.
