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 identifies the issue as a labeling error (marketing brochure) rather than a physical defect or reported injury, fitting the 'Minor labeling errors' criterion for a Moderate score.
