MasterPharm Recalls Minoxidil/Biotin/Spironolactone Capsules Due to Processing Controls

MasterPharm LLC is recalling Minoxidil/Biotin/Spironolactone capsules nationwide due to a lack of processing controls and assurance of conformity to specifications.

The agency’s classification

FDA (Drugs): Class II

Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.

This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 2/5 (Moderate).

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, and the source text does not report any illnesses or injuries, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity score involving potential non-conformity without confirmed harm.
