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, which typically indicates a temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequence. The specific hazard is regulatory non-compliance regarding distribution to unauthorized locations, which fits the criteria for a moderate severity recall involving labeling or regulatory issues without reported injuries.
