The FDA has announced that Pharmavite is recalling certain lots of Nature Made vitamins as the products may be contaminated with Salmonella or Staphylococcus aureus.
According to a company press release, the recall was initiated “out of an abundance of caution” after Pharmavite learned Salmonella and/or S. aureus testing procedures were not properly performed on specific lots. The company has identified the source of the error and is working with the FDA to resolve the issue.
All retail customers and distributors are urged to remove the following lots of Nature Made products, which are sold nationwide, from their shelves:
- Adult Gummies Multi, lot numbers 1196066, 1196071 and 1205052;
