DG Health Sinus Severe nasal decongestant recalled for contaminated excipient
Perrigo Company is recalling DG Health Sinus Severe nasal decongestant because the product was manufactured with a contaminated excipient that was recalled from the supplier. Three batches are affected.
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. No illnesses, injuries, or hospitalizations are reported in the source text. The hazard is a manufacturing process deviation (contaminated excipient) rather than a confirmed harmful substance, making this a precautionary recall.
