Tense-X supplement recalled because it contains magnesium salicylate

Plain-English summary

Tense-X, in 175cc HDPE bottles of 60 vegetable capsules with a two-capsule dose, product SKU PB207, from Professional Botanicals, is being recalled because the product contains magnesium salicylate.

The product was distributed nationwide, including Alaska, Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota and Missouri. The FDA has classified the recall as Class II.

Salicylates are avoided by people with a salicylate sensitivity and by others on medical advice, so an undisclosed salicylate in a supplement matters. The enforcement record reports no illnesses.

Anyone holding a bottle from lot 290301 should stop taking it and contact the firm or their prescriber.
