Aidapak Recalls GuaiFENesin ER Tablets Due to Labeling Mixup

Aidapak Services, LLC is recalling GuaiFENesin ER 600 mg tablets because they may be mislabeled as other prescription drugs.

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. Per the rubric, FDA Class II recalls involving significant injury/property-damage reports or structural defects are Severe; while no injuries are reported, the potential for mislabeling prescription drugs (like Misoprostol or Tacrolimus) as a different drug represents a significant risk of harm, fitting the Severe criteria for high-risk products where injury has not yet been reported but the hazard is substantial.
