Class III · Low risk Terminated Initiated Sep 26, 2013 (13 years ago)

Swanson Premium recall

Recalled by Swanson Health Products, Inc · Fargo, ND, United States

Class III — Low risk. Unlikely to cause harm, but violates FDA regulations.

Why it was recalled

Swanson Health Products is recalling two lots of Swanson Premium Full Spectrum Black Cumin Seed (Nigella sativa) Dietary Supplement Capsules. The product was found to be mislabel. Bottles of Black Cumin Seed from these two lots numbers (199399 & 201359) have been found to contain White Cumin Seed (Cuminum cyminum).

A label that does not match the product can hide an ingredient someone must avoid, or show a wrong use-by date. All labeling errors recalls.

Low risk, but check. Class III means the product is unlikely to make anyone ill but breaks an FDA rule, often a labeling one. If your package matches, the store will normally refund it. FDA lists this recall as terminated: the company has finished removing the product, so it should no longer be on shelves - but it can still be in a freezer or pantry.
