Signature Care Calcium Chews recall
Recalled by Bestco, Inc. · Mooresville, NC, United States
Class III — Low risk. Unlikely to cause harm, but violates FDA regulations.
Why it was recalled
A packaging revision and lack of revision to the corresponding packaging batch record caused the labeling for the firm's Signature Care brand Calcium Chews dietary supplement to declare a higher level of Vitamin D than the product actually contained. The bag declares 25 mcg (1000 IU) of Vitamin D. The product actually contains 12.5 mcg (500 IU) of Vitamin D.
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.

Signature Care Calcium Chews; Dietary Supplement; 500 mg Calcium; 25 mcg Vitamin D; Chocolate; 100 chews; Serving Size 1 chew;

FDA's distribution note: Nationwide
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.
