What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, which typically involves a situation where use of, or exposure to, a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences. The hazard is a CGMP deviation regarding ingredient consistency rather than a confirmed acute injury or high-risk pathogen.
