Cooper Surgical Incontinence Dish Folding Pessary Mislabeled Size Recall

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 by definition is unlikely to cause adverse health consequences. The hazard is a packaging labeling error rather than a direct safety defect.
