What this means for you

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, which typically indicates a situation where use of, or exposure to, the violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences. The hazard is a documentation and stability control issue rather than a confirmed contamination or injury event.
