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 recall is classified as FDA Class II, which typically involves a temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequence. The source cites CGMP deviations without reporting specific illnesses or injuries, aligning with a moderate severity rating for a voluntary precautionary recall.
