0 Multivitamins and supplements sold in Canada under various brand names are being recalled due to concern they could contain metal fibres.
The brands include Equate, Kirkland Signature, Life, Natural Factors, Option+, VegiDay, Webber Naturals, Wellness by London Drugs and Wellquest, according to Health Canada.
The full list can be found here.
The products “may contain metal fibres which, if ingested, may cause injury to the digestive system,” Health Canada said in a advisory published Friday.
“The risk of harm due to the presence of iron is higher in individuals with a peptic ulcer, regional enteritis, ulcerative colitis, iron allergy, or for those taking high doses of iron supplements, levodopa, and/or levothyroxine.”
The recalled products should not be used. Health Canada says they can be taken to local pharmacies for disposal.
Anyone who has used the affected products and has ensuing health concerns should consult their doctor.
