The price hike for those will take effect in February, and the prices for P&G’s personal health products will increase in April, the report noted.

The announcement for the rise in prices comes in the wake of devastating economic figures showing that under President Joe Biden, inflation has surged 7%.

That is a nearly four-decade high, according to the report.

Raising prices is set to help offset costs related to ongoing supply chain problems, P&G said.
