Johnson & Johnson said it voluntarily recalling a single lot of its baby powder in the United States out of an “abundance of caution.”

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) discovered trace levels of asbestos, which is carcinogenic in humans, in a single bottle of Johnson’s Baby Powder that was bought online.
