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 indicates a regulatory compliance issue (lack of clearance) rather than a specific safety hazard or reported injury, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity voluntary precautionary recall.
