Procter & Gamble is recalling Secret antiperspirant products that were manufactured at a facility where benzene contamination was found. This contamination could pose a health risk if the product is used.

Check for the product name 'Secret', 'OUTLAST', or 'Dry Spray' with aluminum chlorohydrate 23.5% and a 3.8 oz can. Products were distributed by Procter & Gamble and expire through September 2023.
