Why these products were recalled

Labeling: Not Elsewhere Classified: Pentrexcilina Tablets and Pentrexcilina Liquid are being recalled because the product labels are misleading because they may be confused with Pentrexyl, a prescription antibiotic used to treat respiratory illnesses in Mexico.

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
