The Food and Drug Administration has issued an urgent safety alert urging consumers, retailers and health‑care facilities to cease using a specific product and either discard it or return it for a refund. The warning follows reports of serious health risks associated with the item, which officials say may cause severe allergic reactions or other adverse effects. The agency is coordinating with manufacturers to investigate the source of the contamination and to ensure that affected batches are removed from shelves nationwide. Patients and caregivers are advised to check the product’s label and serial numbers against the FDA’s recall list and to seek medical attention if any symptoms appear.
Consumers, retailers and health care facilities should stop using the product and discard or return it, the FDA said.
