Join the campaign to bring back the o.b. ULTRA sized Tampons
Let’s tell the makers of o.b. products that we insist our favorite tampon is back in stores! We invite all women to stop buying any o.b. tampons and use another brand, and stop buying Johnson & Johnson® products until they do.
Sign the petition.
We’ve got over 2,500 signatures and still growing!
Please join our campaign by signing our petition to bring back the Ultra size O.B. tampons.
We want to send the makers of O.B. products that we are insisting they return the Ultras back to the market and not reduce the sizes of our tampons as well. We loved them at the larger sizes they were, and liked they many size options from petite to Ultra.
We encourage all women to participate in our "Girlcott" or "O.B. Boycott" and stop purchasing any O.B. tampons, by switching to another brand or method. We can further strengthen this campaign if we also stop buying any products made by Johnson & Johnson and McNeil-PPP. Inc. So SPREAD THE WORD!!
If they stop getting our money, they will hear us "mighty" and "ultra large"!!
Thank you for any support you can offer in our campaign to help O.B. not be so "mighty. small" minded.
( Make sure you allow your INBOX to receive email from: "campaign@obultratampons.com" to confirm your "email signature". We will be sending you a link to confirm your email and signature is "real". )
Again, thank you for supporting our campaign!!
WE HAVE OVER 2,500 SIGNATURES!!
Over 400 of those are waiting for confirmation. We have hidden the majority of names and comments on our petition to protect privacy, but left a few to show you are not alone in this. We would like to get over 3,000 ASAP to show our numbers are deserving of a reasonable response and replacement is needed for our "medical device" was pulled without warning, explanation or replacement of similar qualities is VERY important. Medications and Procedures, with the slew of side-effects is not at all appreciated.
If you have a media connection who would be interested in publishing or assisting us in this campaign, or would like to help, to get more answers, get more publicity, and a replacement product, please email us at: admin@obultratampons.com

If I wanted to take drugs I would have. I can't even tell you how miserable my periods have been as a result of the removal of my purple box from the shelves of every druggist and grocery store in three states - and by the read on here, the United States in general. Surely you have to be making enough money on the sale of these to ensure their being brought back.

Men made this decision based on marketing budgets. Let them shove 2 super plus tampons where the sun doesn't shine and see how comfortable they are!!!

I've had so much Trust in this company -who's products I've always purchased *instead* of other competing brands - even if the other brand had a lower price, and worked just as well - *because* of that Trust. And now they've pulled a product that I've found almost "medically"necessary because it's given me a *quality* of life I didn't have before this product. With this product I have more time to do the things I need to do to deal with, enjoy, and LIVE my life - without constantly having accidents, and having to keep looking at my watch, or keeping aware of whether I'm needing to change my tampon yet. I could relax and feel confident - like I did in *all* of their products. And now I am so disappointed that I need to switch to another brand/company. I will no longer continue to purchase any more of their products if they care so little about keeping something available to the women who *suffer* with heavy bleeding. I have been using o.b. since they first came out - back then, because they were the only ones on the shelf that were truly "green", cared about the environment, and cared about a woman's comfort - and cared *about* the women, period. And years later, I felt so *proud* when this company came out with the Ultra size that I've needed since my 30's - what a Blessing! I was in Heaven! And *SO* proud it was from a company I'd always had so much Faith and Trust in! How I feel now? Beyond disappointed. When they start caring enough about my *physical*/medical needs again (without pills!) and put this back on the shelf, I'll *run* back to stores to start purchasing their products again. I can't believe they don't care that all of these customers are taking their business to another company - and we may *never* come back. I really hope they hear us NOW, start caring about us all again, and bring them back - and restore our Faith in their company again. I'd even consider coming back if they made an effort to help us by at least making a site to purchase them online. That would save them money in all the shipping to stores all over (if money is the issue on their end), and they'd be returning what we *need*. I would be happy with that much of an outreach offering from them - and of course, free shipping should be offered on multiple boxes. I'm so surprised that of all the companies out there, that *this* is the one I'm so disappointed in. Because this comes from the company that *says* it cares so much about it's customers, because they're a "Family Company". They need to remember that your *customers* *ARE* your family as well. Please don't alienate us, lose us, and lose our faith in your company so completely that we'll never come back. If the best Advertising is word of mouth? You should realize how much *WE* will have to say and share with our families and friends who are deciding on which products/companies to buy from in the stores. Please - just bring them back. ~L

The Lillette brand from England is an alternative. Rather than begging Johnson & Johnson to bring back OB Ultra, it would be powerful if Lillett could export to the US. Johnson & Johnson does not deserve our loyalty!!
Dawn Dort, B0N 2J0,
I had been wondering why these were not available. I used to work in the pharmacy business and I am not surprised J. and J. is telling people to switch to a medication instead, wonder who is lining their pockets? This girlcott is a great idea, bring back OB.....keep me posted.

please bring them back
Make MORE impact!!
Join the OB Tampon BOYCOTT of all Johnson and Johnson products.
Boycott all Johnson & Johnson brands and their product lines. Show them we are the leaders of house-hold consumer product purchases. Together we CAN make a difference!










Women are not stupid, J&J. We can see this discontinuation for what it is – a manipulative, cheap attempt to convince women with heavy flows to have unnecessary surgery or take medications, both of which are available from another division of your company (couldn’t be any more blatant, given your link on the official o…b ultra page). We are not biting. I will gladly boycott every and all Johnson and Johnson product on the market, even if it means paying more for a competitor’s product, until the ob Super Plus and Ultras are brought back, in their original form (not some watered down, second-rate version, which I fear is what they’re going to do). Until then, my household of loyal J&J consumers are going J&J free, and I encourage all of the rest of you to do the same. These b@$st@rd$ forget it’s usually us women who make the decisions on which household products to buy. By alienating and disregarding us this way, they’re shooting themselves in the foot.
There is no other tampon that works. Very upsetting. PLEASE BRING THEM BACK!
