International Vitamin Corporation Recalls Live Better Vitamins Due to Failure to Meet Child-Resistant Closure Requirement
International Vitamin Corporation (IVC) is recalling about 12,000 units of Live Better One Daily Tablets and Live Better Complex Vitamin B50 Tablets because the iron supplements are not in child-resistant packaging as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. Ingesting multiple iron supplement tablets at once can cause serious injury or death to young children.
No injuries have been reported as yet, but the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission had just announced a voluntary recall of Live Better One Daily Tablets and Live Better Complex Vitamin B50 Tablets by International Vitamin Corporation (IVC). These recalled products are actually sold at A& P Liquor, A&P, Pathmark, Waldbaum’s, The Food Emporium, Super Fresh and Food Basics grocery stores in CT, NY, NJ, PA, DE, MD, MA, VA and the District of Columbia between June 2009 and October 2010 for about $8. Consumers should keep this product out of reach of children and call International Vitamin Corporation to receive a free replacement child-resistant cap. For additional information, contact IVC toll-free at (866) 927-5470 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday or visit www.ivcinc.com
The recalled supplements were sold in white plastic bottles. “Live Better Complete Multivitamin One Daily Maximum Formula” is printed in blue and red on a white label on one product and “Live BetterComplex Vitamin B50″ is printed in blue and green on a white label on the other product.
