What’s the Problem?
The problem arises from a recall of Sefralls Minoxidil Hair Generation Serum—an over‑the‑counter topical product containing minoxidil—to treat hair loss.
The serum was packaged in non–child-resistant amber dropper bottles, violating the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. Because it is sold with minoxidil—a substance known to be hazardous if ingested by children—absence of compliant packaging poses a serious poisoning risk.
Although no actual poisoning incidents have been confirmed publicly, the recall covers approximately 21,300 bottles distributed online via Amazon between June 2024 and June 2025. No lawsuits are yet filed, but we are actively evaluating potential claims involving child poisoning or related medical harm.

- Gastrointestinal distress—such as nausea, vomiting, or abdominal pain triggering dehydration or electrolyte imbalance.
- Emergency hospitalization—poison control centers often require IV fluids, monitoring, and prolonged observation.
Do You Qualify for a Hair Growth Serum Lawsuit?

Evidence Needed for a Claim
- Product evidence: Photos or physical bottles if still available; Amazon order or packaging photos.
- Medical documentation: Emergency department or pediatrician records, poison control documentation, hospital admission notes.
- Exposure timeline: When ingestion occurred, symptoms started, and treatment delivered.
- Recall confirmation: Evidence that the product matches recall batch (label style, ingredients, manufacturing codes).
Damages You Can Recover
Possible compensation in successful cases may include:
