Why these products were recalled

Possible Misinterpretation of Displayed Measuring Units from INR to %Quick or Seconds; providing instructions to users for ensuring the meter is displaying INR results

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.
