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: This is a Class II FDA recall with no reported illnesses or injuries. The recall addresses manufacturing practice deviations discovered during inspection rather than a specific identified contamination or product defect with documented harm. Per the rubric, recalls with no reported illnesses score at most 3; the manufacturing quality control nature supports a Moderate (2) rating.
