Hyaluronic Acid Supplements Recalled for Potential Undeclared Pharmaceutical Contaminants

MXBBB is recalling hyaluronic acid caplets after notification that product may contain undeclared diclofenac and omeprazole. No analytical confirmation of contamination has been found, but the firm is recalling out of precaution.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall with no reported illnesses or confirmed contamination. However, the potential presence of undeclared prescription drugs (diclofenac and omeprazole) in a dietary supplement represents a clear risk of serious harm including adverse drug effects and interactions, justifying a High severity rating despite the lack of analytical confirmation.

Plain-English summary

MXBBB is recalling 321 bottles of UMARY ACID HYALURONIC 850 MG CAPLETS (UPC 7502265120323, Lot 24183, expiration 07/01/28) sold via Amazon Marketplace. The recall was initiated after the firm received notification from its distributor that product may be tainted with undeclared diclofenac and omeprazole.

Diclofenac is a prescription nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and omeprazole is a prescription proton pump inhibitor. Consumers purchasing hyaluronic acid supplements should not be exposed to these pharmaceutical ingredients unknowingly. The undeclared drugs could pose serious health risks, including adverse effects and harmful drug interactions, particularly in individuals taking other medications or with underlying health conditions.

Notably, no analytical testing by the firm has confirmed the presence of these contaminants in distributed product. Consumers who have purchased this product should stop use and may contact MXBBB for further information. If anyone has experienced adverse health effects after using this product, they should contact their healthcare provider and may report the incident to the FDA.
