IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVISORY CONCERNING CERTAIN NUBY GEL FILLED TEETHERS AND PACIFIERS - MAY 28, 2009
CORRECTION REGARDING IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVISORY CONCERNING CERTAIN NUBY™ GEL FILLED PACIFIERS

On May 28, 2009, erroneous information was disseminated concerning Gel Pacifier by Nuby™ gel filled pacifiers, manufactured by Luv N’ Care Ltd. of Monroe, Louisiana.

The original Advisory listed the Gel Pacifier by Nuby™, model # 539504, among those items that were not in compliance with Canada’s Hazardous Products Act.

The Gel Pacifier by Nuby™ is in fact compliant with Canada’s Hazardous Products Act.

We regret any confusion the earlier Advisory may have caused.

 


The Advisory should have read as follows:
