MasterPharm Recalls Finasteride Plus Capsules Due to Processing Control Deficiencies

MasterPharm LLC is recalling Finasteride Plus 1.25mg capsules nationwide because the product lacked processing controls to ensure it met specifications.

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 is typically associated with a temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequence. The source text does not report any specific injuries, illnesses, or deaths, and the hazard is related to a lack of processing controls rather than a confirmed high-risk pathogen or structural defect.
