   CSI, USA, Inc. nationwide recalls of all lots of 1 ounce (28 g) tubes of 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Cream, as samples of the product were found infested by Burkholderia Cepacia (known as Pseudomonas Cepacia) bacteria.

   Topical 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Cream was sold with the following names:

   • "DG Maximum Strength Acne Medicated Gel" (sold at Dollar General);
   • "Kroger Acne Gel 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Medication" (sold at Kroger);
   • "Equate: Medicated Acne Gel" (sold at Wal-Mart)

   These products are being recalled because samples of the products were found to contain bacteria identified as "Burkholderia Cepacia," formerly known as Pseudomonas Cepacia.
