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 FDA classified this as Class II. The source text does not report any illnesses, injuries, or hospitalizations—only a failed specification during stability testing. This is a precautionary pharmaceutical recall based on manufacturing standards rather than confirmed patient harm, consistent with a Moderate severity rating.
