The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has proposed a new rule aimed at establishing standardized testing methods to detect and identify asbestos in talc-containing cosmetic products. This proposed regulation is intended to enhance consumer safety by ensuring that cosmetic products containing talc are free from harmful asbestos. The announcement comes amid ongoing legal challenges faced by Johnson & Johnson regarding its talcum powder products, which have been linked to cancer allegations in numerous lawsuits.
