Summary
CVS is recalling over 75,000 packages of its medicated hemorrhoid wipes after discovering they lack child-resistant packaging — a major safety risk. The wipes contain lidocaine, a numbing agent that can be deadly if ingested by children. Sold nationwide between April 2020 and April 2026, each pack cost $16 and held 20 individually wrapped wipes. Made by Diamond Wipes International and branded with the CVS Health logo, “Rapid Pain Relief,” and “Medicated Hemorrhoidal Wipes,” these products must be kept out of children’s reach. CVS is offering full refunds at stores — act now to return them — or until then, store them securely.
