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: FDA Class II recall with no reported illnesses or injuries and theoretical contamination risk from inadequate sanitizer meets the criteria for a moderate-risk, precautionary recall.
