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 probability of serious adverse health consequences. The hazards involve non-permitted additives and undeclared ingredients, which are significant labeling and compliance issues but do not indicate an immediate, high-risk pathogen or acute injury risk in this context.
