FDA, 사용하지 말아야할 손세정제 100개에 이르러

미국 식품의약국(FDA)에서 사용하지 말하야할 손세정제가 100가지 이상으로 나타났다.

식약처는 지난 6월 소비자들에게 피부를 통해 흡수되면 독성이 있고 섭취할 경우 치명적일 수 있는 메탄올이 함유된 손세정제에 대해 처음 경고했다. 이후 제조사들에 의해 이러한 제품들이 회수되어 가게 진열대에서 판매되지 않도록 하였다.

현재 FDA는 또한 불충분한 알코올 농도를 함유한 손소독제에 대해 경고하고 있다. 식약청은 7월 31일 업데이트된 경고문에서 “FDA 검사 결과 특정 손소독제의 제품 내 활성 성분인 에틸 아코올 또는 이소프로필 아코올 농도가 상당히 낮은 것으로 나타났다”고 밝혔다.

식약처는 소비자들에게 이러한 효력이 약한 제품을 사용하지 말 것을 촉구하고 메탄올에 오염되었거나 오염되었을 수 있는 손세정제 외에 세정 효력이 약한 손세정제까지 목록을 확대했다.

FDA의 목록에 있는 거의 모든 손소독제는 멕시코에서 제조되었다. 기관은 대부분의 제품에 대해 리콜을 권고했으며, 수입경보를 발령해 제품의 입국을 중단시켰다.

질병관리본부(CDC)에 따르면 적절한 손 위생은 코로나19에 대한 대처법에서 가장 중요한 부분중 하나이다. CDC는 비누로 손을 씻을 수 없는 상황이라면 알코올 함유량이 60% 이상인 손세정제를 사용할 것을 권장하고 있다.
