The company’s comments, in its own words

(7/11/2025) NATPAT: NATPAT acknowledges receipt of this Report and extends sincere concern to the infant and family.
At present, neither CPSC nor the reporting health-care professional has provided photographs of the product, its packaging, or patient records that would enable us to confirm that the item involved was an authentic NATPAT BuzzPatch sticker rather than an imitation. We respectfully request that any such documentation be shared so we can verify provenance and, if applicable, trace the manufacturing lot.
BuzzPatch packs already bear: • a prominent lot number and production/expiry date (e.g., “Lot?No. TRBP60009, Production Date?05-2024, Expiry Date?05-2027”) printed on the lower back panel, and • a boxed WARNING statement that begins “Choking Hazard. Babies and young children should use this product only under constant and direct adult supervision…” and instructs caregivers to prevent the sticker entering the mouth or nose.
Independent accredited testing conducted 22?November?2023 (Intertek Report SHAH01607855) confirms compliance with U.S. children’s-product safety rules: • CPSIA §101 total lead (PASS <?10?ppm) • 16?CFR §1500 mechanical small-parts, sharp-edge & torque/tension (PASS) • 16?CFR §1500.44 flammability (0.03?in/s vs 0.10?limit) • CPSIA §103 tracking-label requirement (package level) [test report on file]
A Toxicological Risk Assessment by a board-certified toxicologist (Intertek Health Sciences Report?HCH?2023-247, 8?Nov?2023) concludes the product “is not considered to pose a risk of acute oral toxicity, skin or eye irritation, sensitisation, or chronic toxicity when used under normal or reasonably foreseeable misuse.” The incident therefore appears to have involved mechanical aspiration rather than chemical toxicity.
Although this is the first known ingestion, NATPAT has nonetheless opened a cross-functional investigation, is analysing root causes, and will implement any additional safety measures that the facts warrant.
We will continue to monitor all post-market data and will promptly submit a §15(b) report should additional information reasonably support a conclusion that the product contains a defect that could create a substantial product hazard.
