Colgate Update on Counterfeit Toothpaste Falsely Labeled as "Colgate"

Colgate-Palmolive announced on June 15 additional developments and actions by the Company to protect consumers against possible risk from recently reported counterfeit toothpaste. Colgate warned consumers that the counterfeit toothpaste, which has been found in some small, independent dollar-type discount stores, may not contain fluoride and could contain Diethylene Glycol, an ingredient not used in Colgate toothpaste anywhere in the world.
