Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Country Life is recalling about 1,100 bottles of Target-Mins 25 mg iron supplements because the packaging is not child-resistant as required by law. These brown glass bottles with black tops were sold at natural food stores like Whole Foods and Sprouts Farmers Market between January 2013 and May 2013. No injuries have been reported, but the firm is offering a full refund or a replacement for the affected products.

Risk

The supplement tablets contain iron, which can cause serious injury or even death to young children if several tablets are swallowed at once. The lack of child-resistant packaging increases the risk of accidental ingestion by children.

  2. Immediately place the recalled iron supplement bottles out of the reach of children.
  3. Return the affected product to the original place of purchase for a full refund or a replacement bottle.
  4. For more information, contact Country Life at (800) 645-5768 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or email salesadmin@countrylifevitamins.com.
