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, but the source text explicitly states that the information printed on the product label is correct and the issue is a documentation discrepancy. This aligns with the rubric for minor labeling errors or voluntary precautionary recalls where no physical defect or injury is reported.
