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 that might cause temporary or medically reversible health issues. The hazard is a failure to meet a quality specification (dissolution) rather than a direct contamination or acute injury risk.
