The Triad group has recalled Alcohol Prep Pads, Alcohol Swabs, Alcohol Swabsticks, and Providine Iodine Prep Pads sold under several brand names. These pads may have potentially dangerous microbial contamination. These products are commonly included in first aid kits, including those from Atwater Carey.

The Providine Iodine Prep Pads are sold under the following names:

The Alcohol Alcohol Prep Pads, Alcohol Swabs, and Alcohol Swabsticks are sold under the follow names:
