What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, and the rubric specifies that FDA Class II recalls with significant injury/property-damage reports or structural defects are Severe. While no injuries are explicitly reported, the 'incorrect dosage regime' for a pharmaceutical product represents a significant risk of harm, aligning with the Severe classification for Class II drug recalls involving dosage errors.
