  • The product may contain bacteria, which can cause infection in immunocompromised people.
  • If you have the recalled shampoo, stop using it immediately.

Check your shower—a popular shampoo has been recalled in the U.S. and Canada over bacterial contamination.

Certain bottles of Oribe shampoo were pulled from shelves after Pluralibacter gergoviae bacteria were detected, the Food and Drug Administration announced July 1.1

The bacteria pose little risk to healthy people, but if you are immunocompromised, you may be more susceptible to infection.
