Why it was recalled

Defective container:may contain bottles with incomplete seals

Labelling, packaging or a product mix-up

The wrong information — or the wrong medicine — ended up in the pack. A mix-up is a manufacturing failure that can still be dangerous to swallow.

This is a manufacturing or quality failure, not a finding that the medicine is unsafe to take — across every recall we hold, none was issued for that reason. It does not mean the batch was harmless.
