Sunset Natural Products Recalls Abee Med Dietary Supplement

Sunset Natural Products is recalling Abee Med dietary supplements under a consent decree requiring the destruction of products manufactured since April 2014.

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 temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequence. The source text does not report specific illnesses or injuries, but the regulatory action (consent decree) indicates a significant compliance failure rather than a minor cosmetic issue.
