Product name Chill Pill Magnetic Haptic Fidget Toys Red Bumpy
Description This recall involves FidgetThings Chill Pill Magnetic Haptic Fidget Toys Red Bumpy. The magnetic fidget pill toy is in the shape of a pill capsule that can be separated into two magnetic halves. One magnetic half is the white base and the other magnetic half is red and bumpy. The magnets are interchangeable with other FidgetThings magnetic fidget pill toys of different colors and textures. The magnetic fidget pill toy was sold encased in a mock prescription bottle with a mock label. The magnets make a clacking sound when brought together. The magnetic fidget pill toy measures about two inches and the mock prescription bottle measures about 3 inches. The mock prescription bottle has 3DPrint Bumpy printed on the label. 
Problem The recalled magnetic fidget pill toy violates the mandatory federal regulation for magnets, posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract to each other, or another metal object, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting and/or blockage of the intestines, infection, blood poisoning and death.
