Customer complaints about product discoloration triggered the probe, and Target said it and manufacturer Sapro Temizlik Urunleri also received reports of skin irritation, eye irritation and possible infections.
The contamination can cause serious infections, especially in newborns, infants, young children and immunocompromised users; bloodstream infections may lead to sepsis or pneumonia.
Affected wipes include Fragrance Free packs from 20 to 1,200 count and Fresh Cucumber Scented packs from 72 to 800 count, with manufacturing dates from Nov. 7, 2025 to May 5, 2026.
Consumers were told to stop using the wipes immediately and return them to any Target store for a full refund as the retailer continues investigating with the FDA.
