What this means for you
Cosmetic or documentation issue. No expected health impact, but the manufacturer is correcting the affected products.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class III, which indicates the product is unlikely to cause adverse health consequences. The issue is a minor labeling error on the primary blister, while the outer carton remains correct.
