Beware of This Eczema Cream Recalled for Bacterial Contamination!

Mutli-Million Dollar Pharmaceutical Company Faces Contamination

Several months ago, multi-millon dollar pharmaceutical company Pharmacal, is recalling one lot of MG217 Multi-symptom Treatment Cream & Skin Protectant Eczema Cream, 6oz Tube for potentially life threatening issues. Specifically there has been reports of Staphylococcus aureus contamination. This is an issue that highlights the failure of hygenic practices in factory made skin care products, as well as the importance of individually testing each and every product for safety.

Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterium that is capable of causing serious issues for consumers. It is simply a bacteria usually found around the nose region of people. The reason that any product would ever be contimated with this bacteria is because of a lack of hygenic practices. The bacteria in and of itself won’t cause an immediate reaction. What would need to happen is that the bacterium would need to contact a part of your skin that is already burned or cut. Once this happens, the bacteria will raise a minor issue, into a fully fledged infection.

Multi-Stage Contamination

The bacterial infection moves in stages. If it only has infected the skin then it can manifest itself through pimples, boils, or cellulitis. Essentially your skin will become extremely inflamed. This is only the intial stage, this is only if the bacteria infects the skin.

If the bacteria is able to enter the bloodstream, then we have absolute chaos. It can cause fever, muscle aches, rapid heart rate or even increased heart rate. Once this stage occurs then it can be very difficult to get rid of the infection.

It is also important to point out that in some limited, more severe cases, then this can turn life threatening. The bacterial infection can turn into pneumonia, bone infections or even sepsis. This is where the life threatening issues come into play.

This is a very large issue for many suffering from eczema, because by definition, eczema is already a skin infection. By using a cream that contains this gnarly bacteria, then it opens the door wide open for all of the issues mentioned above. According to the FDA announcement, there has been no reported cases of any severe infections. Nevertheless, it is always best to avoid even the risk of such problems, hence the large recall.
