Washington Homeopathic Products Kali Sulphuricum fails identification test

Washington Homeopathic Products is recalling Kali Sulphuricum 3X homeopathic medicine nationwide because identification testing using HPTLC analysis produced out-of-specification results.

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 an FDA Class II recall involving a homeopathic medicine with failed identification testing. No illnesses, injuries, or deaths are reported in the source text. The hazard is test-result-based rather than tied to documented harm, and homeopathic products present lower inherent risk than conventional pharmaceuticals, placing this in the Moderate category.
