Fake Toothpaste

[panther]

Toxic fake toothpaste that could have serious health consequences for anyone using it has been sold in markets and discount shops in the UK
The imitation tubes of Sensodyne have both Arabic and English writing on them.
The manufacturer of the legitimate product, GlaxoSmithKline, has said the fake toothpaste has high levels of the chemical Diethylene Glycol.
The chemical could be toxic to young children and anyone with impaired liver or kidney function
Anyone with one of the fake packs is advised to dispose of it immediately.

I buy mine direct from Melaleuca. It's a cinnamon one which I really like but actually preferred before they improved it.

Thanks for the info though. Someone may have bought some and be saved from serious illness or worse.

I would bet they are made in China.

The guy who was responsible for accrediting products with saftey certificates has been sentenced to death for taking bribes for many untested drugs for both humans and animals, these products have been exported and caused havoc around the world.

Reason for execution..."damaging the made in china brand".

They reckon it's gonna restore the credability of the entire brand...

Take it back to where you bought it and demand a refund.
