Urgent Recall of Physiological Serum in France Due to Alcohol Contamination

French health authorities have issued a nationwide recall of several batches of physiological serum due to the presence of alcohol traces from the cleaning process. The recall, effective since May 12th, 2025, urges parents to stop using the affected serum on babies. The alcohol contamination poses a risk of respiratory issues, excessive drowsiness, and hypoglycemia in infants. "A simple bottle can represent a danger," warns a concerned citizen in a viral video. Health inspectors discovered quality defects during site inspections of the manufacturer's facilities. The products have been removed from sale. Parents are advised to check with pharmacies to determine if their serum is part of the affected batches. The recall highlights the importance of product safety, especially for vulnerable populations like infants.
