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 without reported illnesses or injuries. The hazard—storage temperature deviation—is a compliance matter rather than an active safety threat, warranting a Moderate severity score.
