If you purchased Johnson & Johnson’s Baby Shampoo or Wal-Mart brand Equate Tearless Baby Wash, you may want to stop using it. A class action lawsuit has been approved this month that claims these products may contain a toxin linked to cancer.
The class action lawsuit, filed earlier this year, accuses Johnson & Johnson and Wal-Mart Stores of selling shampoo and baby wash that allegedly contains methylene chloride, an ingredient banned by the FDA in cosmetics because it’s linked to cancer. The law firm that filed the lawsuit is also investigating Target’s Night-time Bath and Body Wash, which is not currently named in the suit.
A third Johnson & Johnson plant is now also under investigation for alleged quality concerns. The new Johnson & Johnson plant is one that manufactures Pepcid and Mylanta among other products.

This sickens me! Stop harming my children and everyone else that use these products.
I’ve always used Johnson’s products and still do until now. Seems like this company really doesnt care about the health of of kids or anyone that uses their products. I feel that this is a form of child abuse and neglect.

Equate still contains carcinogens: methylchloroisothiazolinone. Sulfates. Class action law suits do not work. Scientists rename and its still on store shelves.

I used Johnson & Johnson baby shampoo from birth??? til I was about 25yrs old. Never got my hair professionally shampood back then. Used J & J’s (thick pink) detangler also (when it came out) until 1999. Had brain surgery in October 1999 to remove a tumor. I always though it was due to the (now non existant antennas on cell phones. No longer working & on. S Security disability.
