Description
The pacifiers, which measure three inches long and about 1½ inches across the base, are pink, blue, green or white plastic with a yellow nipple. The pacifiers have a circular handle and the shield is labeled "Jaloma." The nipples are filled with a sugary substance.
Hazards
The pacifiers are banned under federal law. They failed federal safety tests, come apart, and can pose a choking hazard to infants and small children.
Reported injuries
CPSC has received one report of a pacifier nipple that detached from the pacifier while in the mouth of a seven-month-old. The child was not injured.
Remedy
Consumers should immediately take the pacifiers away from young children and return them to the store where purchased for a full refund.
