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. The hazard involves a failure to notify customers of labeling revisions regarding outside-use indications, which is a documentation and labeling issue rather than a direct physical defect or reported injury, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity voluntary precautionary recall.
