Quoted from the record as published. If a product is not described here, this notice does not tell us whether it was affected.

What Class III means

The FDA’s least serious class: use of the product is not likely to cause adverse health consequences. Often a labelling or packaging fault.

This is the agency’s own definition of the class. We do not assign classes and we do not rank them against each other.
