Iowa Select Herbs Recalls Cudweed for Misbranding and Adulteration

Iowa Select Herbs LLC is recalling Cudweed products because they are misbranded, unapproved new drugs, and adulterated dietary supplements.

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 agency classified this as an FDA Class III recall, which is defined as unlikely to cause adverse health consequences. The hazards involve regulatory violations (misbranding/adulteration) rather than immediate physical injury risks like choking or fire.
