What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class I classification mandates a minimum severity score of 4. Although no illnesses or injuries have been reported, a labeling discrepancy on a controlled benzodiazepine poses a reasonable probability of medication errors.
