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 agency classified this as an FDA Class II recall. Per the rubric, FDA Class II recalls involving significant injury/property-damage reports or hospitalization are rated Severe (4). While specific injury reports are not detailed in the snippet, the presence of B. cepacia in a pharmaceutical product is a significant safety hazard warranting a Class II classification, which maps to Severe in the absence of Class I indicators.
