Good Herbs Horse Chestnut Recalled for GMP Violations

Good Herbs, Inc. is recalling Horse Chestnut products because they were not manufactured under Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs).

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 involves a remote possibility of serious adverse health consequences or transient, non-life-threatening health consequences. The specific hazard is a GMP violation, which is a quality control issue rather than a confirmed contamination or injury event.
