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: FDA Class III recall with no reported illnesses or injuries. The hazard is a formulation error—wrong animal source for the active ingredient—which presents potential risk due to ingredient source mismatch but lacks evidence of actual harm.
Plain-English summary
V-Force Homeopathic, a 30 mL liquid homeopathic product manufactured by Grato Holdings, Inc. and distributed by BioActive Nutritional, Inc. (Melbourne, FL), is being recalled due to a formulation error.
Bottles with lot number Z65842 contain Glandula Suprarenalis Suis 8X (pig-derived adrenal gland) as the active ingredient, but the product label states the ingredient is Glandula Suprarenalis Bovine 8X (cow-derived adrenal gland). This means consumers received a product with a different ingredient source than what appears on the label.
Approximately 1,333 bottles were distributed to one direct account in Florida, with possible distribution to other states. Consumers who have purchased this product should discontinue use if they have concerns about the ingredient source, particularly those with allergies or dietary restrictions related to specific animals. Contact the FDA to report any adverse events.
