Warning: Miracle II Neutralizer and Neutralizer Gel Products
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a December 6, 2005, warning from MedWatch, the FDA's safety information and adverse event reporting program. According to the FDA warning, consumers are advised not to use the Miracle II Neutralizer and Neutralizer Gel products. These products are bacterially contaminated and have not been proven to be safe and effective. They are marketed as cleaners, deodorizers, natural insecticides and antibacterial agents. Despite the FDA notification, the manufacturer, Tedco, Inc., has declined to voluntarily remove the products from the market. The FDA's MedWatch program requests that any adverse events related to Miracle II products be reported by phone at 1-800-FDA-1088 or by using the FDA MedWatch online reporting form.
Tedco's promotional health claims for the Miracle II Neutralizer products were categorized by the FDA as "deceptive and untruthful." Although Miracle II naturalizer products have been promoted for treatment of cataracts and pinkeye, as well as an eyewash, FDA investigations revealed bacterial contamination and poor manufacturing conditions. Consumers are advised to discontinue using the products and dispose of them.
