The Spanish Agency for Medicines and Health Products (AEMPS), which depends on the Ministry of Health, has notified the order to cease marketing, withdraw from the market, and recover ten batches of Parasol brand sun protection products. The reason for this withdrawal is that the products may have been subject to microbiological contamination.
The affected batches of these products are those whose initial numbers are between 01 and 14, and 90 to 92, and have been marketed between March 2024 and May 2025. Although only six of them have been distributed in Spain, due to the free movement in the European market, the authorities cannot rule out the presence of the rest of the products in Spain.
The authorities report that it could pose a risk of irritation or infection in case of contact with the eyes or damaged skin. For this reason, they ask that, if you have any unit of the affected batches, do not use it, and take the product to the establishment where you purchased it to proceed with its return.
The affected products in Spain are:
