Signature Care Calcium Chews; Dietary Supplement; 500 mg Calcium; 25 mcg Vitamin D; Chocolate; 100 chews; Serving Size 1 chew;
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration.
The hazard
A packaging revision and lack of revision to the corresponding packaging batch record caused the labeling for the firm's Signature Care brand Calcium Chews dietary supplement to declare a higher level of Vitamin D than the product actually contained. The bag declares 25 mcg (1000 IU) of Vitamin D. The product actually contains 12.5 mcg (500 IU) of Vitamin D.
