Adobe recalls high-powered magnets in promotional materials due to risk of intestinal injury if swallowed by children. Consumers should stop using and return magnets immediately.
When two or more magnets are swallowed, they can link together inside a child's intestines and clamp onto body tissues, causing intestinal obstructions, perforations, sepsis and death. Internal injury from magnets can pose serious lifelong health effects.
Adobe is recalling high-powered magnets included in promotional materials for children because swallowing multiple magnets can cause serious intestinal injuries. This is especially dangerous for young children who might accidentally swallow magnets.
When multiple magnets are swallowed, they can stick together inside the intestines and cause blockages, tissue damage, infections, or death. This risk is particularly high for young children who might accidentally swallow magnets.
Children who may have swallowed magnets or are at risk of accidental ingestion. Parents and caregivers of young children are most at risk.
The magnets come in a green box with a black lid containing 12 spherical silver magnets about .5 inches in diameter. They were distributed with Adobe's "Effective Collaboration is Magnetic" promotional materials.
Immediately stop using the magnets and discard them or contact Adobe for return instructions.
