Aurolife Pharma is recalling specific lots of Allergy Relief (Fexofenadine Hydrochloride) 180 mg tablets because they failed impurities and degradation 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 typically corresponds to a Moderate severity score (2) in the absence of reported hospitalizations or serious injuries, as the hazard is a specification failure rather than a confirmed high-risk pathogen or structural defect.
