RootStim recalls minoxidil hair regrowth treatments because bottles are not child-resistant
The minoxidil hair regrowth foam, spray and serum bottles are not child-resistant as required, so young children who swallow the contents could be seriously injured or die from poisoning.
What to do
Immediately put the recalled products out of children's sight and reach, and contact RootStim for instructions on getting a replacement. You will be asked to write "RECALLED" on the bottle, discard it and send a photo of it to finergraceing@gmail.com.
