Bariatric Fusion Recalls Bags of Soft Chews Iron With Vitamin C Due To Failure to Meet Child-Resistant Closure Requirement (Recall Alert)

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Bariatric Fusion is recalling approximately 800 bags of its Soft Chews Iron with Vitamin C dietary supplements because the packaging is not child-resistant. These cherry-flavored chews contain iron, which can be toxic or fatal to young children if consumed in large quantities. The pink 60-count bags were sold nationwide at drug stores, medical centers, and through various online health retailers between September 2014 and February 2015. Consumers should return the product for a full refund or a replacement in safe, compliant packaging.

Risk

The re-sealable bag fails to meet federal child-resistant packaging requirements, allowing children to easily access the iron supplements. If a young child ingests multiple iron-containing chews, it can lead to serious internal injury or death.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify your product by checking for 60-count pink bags labeled 'Soft Chews Iron with Vitamin C' and 'Cherry flavor' with UPC 894603002451.
  2. Check the back of the bag near the bottom for lot number 14191C2 to confirm if your specific package is affected.
  3. Immediately place these supplements out of the sight and reach of children.
  4. Return the product to the place of purchase for a full refund or a free replacement of the same product in child-resistant packaging.
