Class Action Lawsuit Over Pampers Diapers with Dry Max Filed

A class action suit has been filed against Proctor & Gamble on behalf of all purchasers of Pampers diapers or “Easy Ups” containing a new “Dry Max” technology, which have been linked to reports of severe diaper rash, blisters, chemical burns, infections and other problems.

The Pampers diaper class action lawsuit was filed on May 11 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio. The claim seeks to force Proctor & Gamble to reimburse parents who bought the diapers, pay for the treatment of skin ailments allegedly caused by the Pampers diapers and regularly test their products to ensure they are not causing skin rashes or chemical burns.

In March, Proctor & Gamble released new Pampers Swaddlers and Cruisers diapers using “Dry Max” technology. The diapers are thinner than previous Pampers. However, a growing number of parents say that their children suffered severe rashes, blisters and what appear to be chemical burns after wearing the diapers.

Change Healthcare Data Breach Impacts Millions of Customers

A massive Change Healthcare data breach exposed the names, social security numbers, medical and personal information of potentially 100 million Americans, which have now been released on the dark web. Lawsuits are being pursued to obtain financial compensation.

The company has previously called the claims made in the Pampers diaper lawsuit false, and says that the allegations of severe diaper rash were started by a group of parents using social media to spread rumors about the diapers because they did not like the changes the company made to the diapers. However, parents from a Facebook group say they took to social media after they went to P&G directly and their concerns were swept aside.

The company pulled in about $8.5 billion in revenue from Pampers last year.

Earlier this month, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced that it was opening an investigation into Pampers Dry Max diaper rash claims. Health Canada has also launched an investigation. The CPSC is urging parents who have experienced problems to contact them immediately.

I switch to different ointments thinking that might be it. I change her aveeno soap thinking that can also be it. That didn’t change anything instead it looked like it was peeling even more. Then it came to my mind that the pampers “sensitive” wipes can be it so my fiancé got Huggies wipes. Two days later it started to get better. I have pictures and I can get the doctors notes.

I had been using parent's choice wipes on occasion and the other diaper changes using a warm wash cloth. My mother bought me a case of pampers wipes. I started using them less than two days ago and my daughter has a raging allergic reaction or possibly a chemical burn . She went from having a perfectly healthy looking bottom to I'm less than 48 hours having a angry rageing red bottom and genetal area, swollen raised skin that has blisters and is bleeding. I am outraged,angry and very hurt that my infant has to go through this horrible pain. As an adult I don't think I could handle having that horrible reaction..especially in that area! She is shaking in pain,constantly crying,can not sleep and is miserable when she is usually a very happy and content baby. I feel horrible for her and it's breaking mine and her father's heart. I reported this to pampers,called her pediatrician and did my own research. I believe that that preservative MCL/MI Caused her to have such a quick and severe reaction. My innocent infant should not have to go through this much ubbearable pain..especially when there are plenty of documented cases of this happening. I feel this is neglegece on pampers behalf to continue to use this chemical knowing this horrible reaction can happen to more baby's. Also, I am watching my daughter suffer,having to pay for a cab to get to her doctors,buying creams and medications out of pocket for thier ignorance to this horrible issue. Pampers should be responsible for her/our pain and suffering and for the out of pocket expenses and time my family has put in to this issue because of their product. This is not right! Please contact me as soon as you can so i have a chance to speak up for my baby girl. Thank you.

    Seems this has not yet been remedied. We typically use Cloth or Seventh Generation but in a pinch needed to get what the store had. It took half the package we bought, but my daughter has the blisters that pop and look like burn marks all over her hiney. It is extremely painful. This is 2015...several years after the original post. Wish I had known that day in the store to look for such warnings!

    I am also very concerned about these pampers cruisers we have that mafe a rash so bad on my daughter that she could sleep nd she is so raw she bleeds. I went to the doctor today and they told me to keep an eye on it and gave me some nystatin with steroids to help stop intching.

    My son was born01-22-2011. I've started off using Swaddlers(newborn), which has given me no problem. After his newborn days were over I've been using Huggies and Luvs. I will prefer Luvs any day. I thank God Cedric Jr. has never had a diaper rash, he's a happy baby. For those that do have rashes, I reccommend that u allow your baby's bottom to air dry and apply vaseline throughout the day.

    I can't believe they are denying this. I have heard many complaints about these diapers. I used to love pampers. I will no longer buy. My son too broke out in a horrible diaper rash from pamper diapers.

    STAY AWAY FROM PAMPERS CRUISERS. My son has never had issues with diaper rash. When we switched to this product, he developed a rash within several hours. It was painful for him and he is currently healing while we switched back to his old diapers. Shame on pampers for not taking responsibility for this and owning up to this adverse product effect.

If someone else had told me that their baby has an UTI after starting a new diaper, I would have laughed on them. But I am a physician myself and very particular about hygiene. Inspite of that my 4 month old daughter had an UTI 4 days after starting pampers dry diapers. I was taken aback after my daughter suddenly started developing high fevers and was diagnosed with UTI. Was wondering what went wrong. But continued same diapers. Today,she developed severe rash , which she never had before and it was disheartening to see her crying at the top of her voice. Then I started thinking what went wrong in past 1 week, only change we had done was buying new pampers baby dry. We noticed that it doesnt hold urine much, but then again we were thinking may be she is making more urine and changed frequently, but later realised it doesnt even hold her 1 time pee. I am trying myself as to reason out why it shud cause UTI, but unable to conclude. But nevertheless ,I am positive it has something to do with pampers baby dry diapers. Long story short- My daughter had to get IV antibiotics and we had such a stressful time at our home bcoz of this stupid product.

Our baby is an easy baby and really only cries when something is wrong. About a week back my hubby bought a new pack of Pampers... Needless to say that she developed a rash. We have used 5 different creams, that worked previously for small rashes, and none of these have worked so far. For the passed 4 days since the rash developed it has just become worse. Red, inflammed blisters. The poor child can't sleep it hurts so much. We are currently changing her diaper nearly every 2 hours, which was previously not needed. Now that i have read this.. And just the thought that it could be the diaper causing my baby so much pain? The hell with the new full pack!! I'm buying Huggies tomorrow!!!

I consult his pediatrician and told my husband they wasn't sure either. I continue using the brand and as he turn 1 and being able to reach behind to scratch his buttock, he scratch his dry scally buttock every chance he gets when the diaper comes off and he would scratch so hard it bleeds, his pediatrician gave creams and it didn't work. When his bottock started getting worse the peditrician suggested cream with steriods I did not like that plan or idea so I finally decide to switch him to Huggies to rule out the pamper before using cream with steriods and within 4-5 days his dry itchy rash went away and I knew it was the pamper and I was so upset at myself for letting my son experience that terrible uncomfortable feeling for 1 year especially when I already had an instinct from the beginning. I have 2 older girls who used huggies and he was the first to use pampers I will never use pampers again.

    We purchased these diapers recently for our 9 month old (he has been using Luvs since birth) we decided to give these a try since they were on sale. After a few days of using these diapers my son has a red swollen penis. I will never use these diapers again. They should be ashamed of themselves, these are babies we're talking about!

Trevor a week earlier was diagnosed with a serious Staph infection which lead him to the ER where he was put on a major dose of antibiotics. The Staph became so bad that the doctors had to perform a minor surgery on Trevor to remove the infection the following day. Along with the rash came the incredible high fevers; Trevor's body was desperately fighting the infection caused by Pampers w/ Drymax. Pampers should be ashamed of themselves for providing a product that could cause such serious injuries to young children. I will never buy Pamper products again!

My son used these diapers as a baby, then had to move into a larger size before they had them in a larger size, moved back into them as soon as I saw they came out. I was a fan of pampers. Then my son got a bad rash. This was BEFORE I SAW ANYTHING about drymax. I didnt have a clue what that was as a matter of fact. So I wasn't making this up from something I heard. They I went to the website and searched for why my baby would be getting such a bad rash. While he has very sensitive skin, I always made sure he was not left in a wet diaper. He actually never had a rash before this (other than a tiny fungus patch for a few days a looong time ago). So he got this rash and I switched to huggies pure and natural. It cleared up quickly and I thought no big deal. I was so "unconcerned" I kept my new born baby girl in them. She has been wearing these till now, with no problems once. She is now 4 months old. Size 2 swaddler sensitive. Now out of the blue she is getting a rash. Didnt have an issue till now. The box does not say dry max on it at all, but there is something going on I think. These diapers are not what she has been using even though it is same box. These get really puffy when she pees in them, and the urine leaks all the time so bad. My little girl is drenched in pee and smelling like a homeless man when I wake up in the am. I have only been getting 4 hours of sleep, there is no reason my little lady should be rashy and drenched in urine after four hours. Has anybody else had this problem? Any advice? BTW... My son has been wearing pull ups by pampers and he doesnt have any problem. This is the same son that had the really bad reaction to start with. I never tried finding out if these were supposed to contain dry max as he never had a problem, so I just assumed they didnt contain it.Is this the case or is my kid's butt just weird?

    I am so sorry to hear what all of you and your babies have been through. Mty baby is only a month old and suffered from some of the same thing, though not quite as severe; but it is heartbreaking when you know your baby is in pain and you can't figure out what is causing it.

He is two and cried every time i had to wipe his bottom because of the soreness. I changes to luvs...although they do not hold as much, he has been rash free. I will not buy pampers again.

A couple of days later I noticed it had broken open and increased in size. The spot was only getting bigger regardless of what we put on it. It never dawned on me to think that it was the diapers since she has been wearing Pampers since she was born. Then this morning I noticed another spot forming and started to do web search and found that other kids are having similar reactions. This is awful and I hope P&G/Pampers acknowledges the problems with the product.

    My son is almost a year old. We have never had any extreme rashes he has no history of skin issues. I purchase both Huggies and Pampers depending on the sales or coupons I have. Memorial Day I purchased Pampers and by Wed night my son was pink. Thursday afternoon he was bright red and so soar I had to soak him in the sink rather than wipe his soar , red , inflamed skin.

    My 11 month old has what appears to be a chemical burn on her vagina and buttocks. This is no diaper rash. It is read and fleshy and it oozes puss. She too like other parents claim hates to get her diaper changed and take a bath because it is so painful to her. She is my second child and I never had a diaper rash problem with the first and she had never had one until now.

I have just bought 2 boxes of size 3 Pampers Cruiser's Dry Max Diapers and I am going to have alot of diapers to throw in the garbage. I love Pampers and always have but after reading all of these reviews I am going to switch. Normally you think a rash might be caused by what your child has eaten or if you leave the diaper on to long, but this type of rash is totally different. Usually the rash clears up after a few applications of diaper rash cream, Aquaphor creams is my favorite, but this rash clearly has just gotten worse. Tonight I am going to buy some Huggies and see how that turns out.

Her doctor (the physician on-call) treated her with a Rx cream. As the week continued, she developed greater redness and approx. 20 more open sores/ raw skin areas in all areas of her diaper except the high back. She was prescribed Silvadine (a burn cream) and a different anti-fungal cream. She was in such severe pain that she was shaking with rigors and crying hysterically whenever her diaper had to be changed or she had to be cleaned on her bottom. She is normally a very happy baby even when ill and this was horrible. As the next week came about she seemed to not get a lot worse with the sores, however, they weren't getting better and she developed such severe redness and swelling in her genitals that they truly were hot, and like a tomato. We have photo evidence. Our doctor at this point said to continue the treatment above, but also use a mixture of Maalox and Aquaphor or A&D to combat the burning in between Rx creams. He recommended as much diaper free time as possible and to potentially switch diapers. Once we switched diapers and had her consistently out of diapers for a few days, she started to get better. When consulting with our doctor about our experience, he felt the diapers were at fault and that this was not a coincidence. As a long time Proctor and Gamble Shareholder, I am so displeased at how this company is not seeming to take responsibility for the apparent large number of people who are having similar troubles. I feel that if you have a product that is un-safe, EVEN FOR A PORTION OF THE POPULATION THAT USES IT, one should own up to it and place warnings on the product or re-call the product. As in the Toyota case that has come to light recently, monetary gains should not the the sole consideration in product development, marketing, and sales. I have never thought of myself as someone who would embark in a lawsuit, however, when Proctor and Gamble told my mother in law (who file the initial complaint after watching that others had had similar problems) that this diaper was tested on over 20,000 children and babies around the world and it was perfectly safe, all I could think about was my baby shaking and crying hysterically and having such a severe burn on her diaper area that at times I wondered if she would be permanently scarred. This shouldn't even be a possibility to happen to other babies and families.

I tried the dry max but honestly am now waiting on Pampers to recall them and do right by all parents who know their children's skin and when something is amiss. Prior to our purchase of these new diapers, I wondered why Pampers would need to promote a diaper that a baby/toddler could wear for 5 hours or longer (unless overnight), frequent changes do help to prevent rashes. But anything that would keep my son dryer, was worth a try. But not at the expense of his comfort and the potential for short or long term effects in his private region.

I have no doubt that it is caused by these diapers. The rash is not a common diaper rash, it is a burn and she's in extreme pain. Her pediatrician recommended we lather her in hydrocortisone and Desitin (not the creamy but the thick) and let her go without a diaper for as long as possible. Even though it was a little messy, it did decrease some of the redness and hopefully she's on the road to recovery and will not scar. Oh and we definitely switched to Huggies

    I have 2 kiddos in diapers who are VERY sensitive to various diapers and I have NO problems with the new dry max and have been using them for nearly 2 months

    Both my children have experienced very bad rashes, blisters, red swollen open blisters that began bleeding. My children would scream in pain when I would change there diapers and would not liked to be held on my hip due to the pain. I have always loved pampers until all this starting happening........
