First Aid Only Recalls Ibuprofen Dispenser Boxes Containing Aspirin

First Aid Only is recalling Smart Tab First Aid ezRefill System Ibuprofen boxes that were accidentally filled with aspirin packs.

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 a Class II recall involving a packaging error where aspirin was placed in ibuprofen boxes. While this is a significant labeling/packaging error, the source does not report any illnesses or injuries, and the hazard is primarily related to incorrect medication identification rather than a high-risk pathogen or structural defect.
