Iowa Select Herbs Recalls Yarrow Flowers for Misbranding and Adulteration

Iowa Select Herbs LLC is recalling 24 bottles of Yarrow Flowers because the product is misbranded, an unapproved new drug, and an adulterated dietary supplement.

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 a Class III recall, which is defined as unlikely to cause adverse health consequences. The hazard involves regulatory violations (misbranding/adulteration) rather than a specific acute physical hazard like a pathogen or choking risk.
