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, but the specific defect is a labeling error (incorrect expiration date) with no reported injuries or illnesses, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity labeling issue.
