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 of a prescription drug with no reported illnesses or hospitalizations. While Class II recalls indicate a potential for adverse health consequences, the source provides no evidence of actual harm. This qualifies as a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported.
