Why it was recalled

The distribution firms Leader Brand, Major Pharmaceuticals, and The Harvard Drug Group dba Rugby Laboratories are jointly initiating a voluntary recall of multiple supplements due to possible product contamination with B. cepacia, which may result in serious infections that could be life-threatening in patients with compromised immune systems and in patients with chronic lung conditions such as cystic fibrosis.

Class II means using this product may cause temporary or medically reversible health problems; the chance of serious harm is remote.
