Summary

CVS is recalling tens of thousands of medicated hemorrhoid wipes after discovering they lack child-resistant packaging — a serious safety risk since they contain lidocaine, which could be fatal if ingested by a child. Sold nationwide and online between April 2020 and April 2026 for $16 a box, these wipes feature the CVS Health logo and “Rapid Pain Relief” branding. If you have them at home, keep them locked away or return them for a full refund.
