The Procter & Gamble Company (NYSE:PG) is recalling three lots of its Vicks Sinex nasal spray in three countries: the United States, Germany and the United Kingdom.

These three lots were sold only in the United States, Germany and the United Kingdom
P&G is removing the product in question from store shelves and has informed regulatory authorities in the affected countries. P&G said it found the bacteria B. cepacia in a small amount of product from U.S. lot 9239028831 and is conducting testing on the U.K. and German lots that have been produced from the same batch of raw material mixture.
