Recall notice
Procter & Gamble has issued a recall for 8.2 million bags of Tide, Gain, Ace, and Ariel laundry detergent pods due to a risk of serious injury. The packaging of these products can split open, posing a risk if the contents are ingested or come into contact
with skin or eyes. The issue with the packaging was discovered after the company received four reports of children in the United States accessing the liquid laundry packets, three of which reported ingestion during the time period that the recalled lots were sold. However, it is not known if these laundry packets came from the recalled bags. No confirmed cases directly relating to this packaging defect have been reported.
The recall involves Tide Pods, Gain Flings, Ace Pods, and Ariel Pods liquid laundry detergent packets packaged in flexible film bags. These products were manufactured between September 2023 and February 2024. The recall applies to bags containing 12 to 39 laundry detergent packets, with a variety of scents and types:
- Gain Flings Original

- Tide Simply Pods Plus Oxi Boost

The products were sold At: Big Lots, CVS, Family Dollar, Home Depot, Sam’s Club, Target, Walmart, and other major stores nationwide and online at Amazon.com and other websites from September 2023 through present for between $5 (one 12 ct. bag) and $30 (four 39 ct. bags in a box). The total number of recalled units is approximately 8.2 million, with an additional 56,741 sold in Canada.
Please do not use this product if you have it at home and return it to the store where it was purchased for a full refund and a free replacement child-resistant bag to store the product.
If you or a loved one are harmed or experiencing any symptoms, it is important to report it. Reporting can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.
