Intervet, Inc. has recalled approximately 753 boxes of Safe-Guard (fenbendazole) Canine Dewormer 2g because expired samples were mistakenly mailed to customers by a marketing firm. The affected products were 2g pouches that carried an expiration date of November 30, 2006, but were distributed to consumers after that date. This recall specifically affects pet owners in Pennsylvania and Delaware who received these samples in the mail.
Using expired medication may result in the product being less effective than intended, which could lead to incomplete treatment of intestinal parasites in dogs. While this is considered a low-risk event, the manufacturer is recalling the units to ensure pet safety and product efficacy.
