Virbac AH, Inc. is recalling approximately 2,100 units of Breath-eze Breath & Gas Relief Tablets for Dogs (containing activated charcoal and simethicone). The recall was initiated because the product was found to contain Breath-eze chewable breath mints instead of the intended gas relief formula, meaning it lacks the active ingredients necessary to treat digestive gas in pets. The affected tablets were distributed in Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Ohio, New Jersey, Arizona, North Carolina, Nebraska, and Canada. Consumers who have purchased this product should consult with their veterinarian or pharmacist for guidance and may return any unused portion for a refund.
The product lacks the active ingredients simethicone and activated charcoal required to provide gas relief for dogs. This defect means a pet suffering from gas or digestive distress will not receive the intended therapeutic treatment, which could lead to prolonged discomfort or untreated symptoms.
