CPSC, Sanapac Co. Announce Recall of Dietary Supplements
WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission (CPSC), The Sanapac Co., of Dallas, Pa., is voluntarily recalling
about 140,000 bottles of dietary supplements containing elemental iron. The
supplements being recalled are not packaged in child-resistant packaging as
required under the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. If accidentally swallowed by
children in toxic amounts, these supplements can cause serious injury or death.
CPSC and Sanapac Co. are not aware of any injuries involving these
products. This recall is being conducted to prevent the possibility of injury.
The products involved are "Super Queens Inner Woman", "Super Kings Inner
Man", "Sanapac Inner Man Gold", "Sanapac Rooster Brand Pills" and "Extra
Strength Rooster Kings". The Sanapac company name and logo are on each bottle.
The recalled products are packaged in containers of 30, 35, 60 and 70 tablets,
all of which have traditional, screw-on caps.
Pharmacies, health food, vitamin and grocery stores nationwide sold the supplements from January 1998 through
December 1998 for about $6 to $20.
Consumers should immediately return the products to the store where
purchased for a refund or a child-resistant package. Consumers with questions
about this recall should call Sanapac Co. at (800) 220-8180 between 9 a.m. and
5 p.m. EST Monday through Friday.
Products sold since December 1998 are in child-resistant packages and are not
involved in this recall.
