According to the ANSM, the dosage form of this deodorant, a predominantly fatty ointment “which would promote the obstruction of the pores of the armpits with the possibility of microbial superinfection, through an occlusive effect”, may be responsible for this undesirable effect. Following discussions with the manufacturer, its marketing was temporarily suspended and all batches available at points of sale were withdrawn from the market, as well as those available from distributors, ANSM said.
The medicines agency specifies that users have reported “adverse effects such as painful cysts in the armpits, sometimes accompanied by an infection treated with antibiotics”. In most reported cases, the cysts disappeared after stopping use of the product or taking prescribed treatments.
A new formula in preparation
The ingredients included in the composition of Nuud deodorant are not individually considered to be the cause of the reported adverse effects, adds the ANSM. On the Nuud website, manufactured by a Dutch company very active on social networks, it is indicated that the deodorant is “temporarily unavailable”. “We are working on a new formula,” it is stated.
