What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 2/5 (Moderate).
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, and the source text does not report any illnesses, injuries, or hospitalizations. The hazard is a failure to meet stability specifications, which is a quality control issue without reported adverse health consequences.
