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 a Class II recall, but the source text explicitly states no illnesses or injuries have been reported. The hazard is manufacturing-process deviation without documented harm. This falls under the voluntary, precautionary category matching the Moderate severity level.
