Defective Product serious injury lawyer in Jones County Georgia
The guidelines divide the recalls into one of three classes depending on the level of hazard involved.
Class I recalls are for dangerous or defective products that predictably could create serious health problems or death. Products that could fall into this category include food found to contain botulinal toxin, food with undeclared allergens, a label mix-up on a life saving drug, or a defective artificial heart valve.
Class II recalls are for products that might cause a temporary health problem, or pose just a slight threat of a grave nature. One instance is a drug which is under-strength but which is not used to treat life-threatening situations.
Class III recalls are for products which are unlikely to result in any adverse health reaction, but which violate FDA labeling or manufacturing rules. For instance a container defect (plastic material delaminating or a lid that does not seal); off-taste, color, or leaks in a bottled drink, and lack of English labeling in a retail food.
FDA develops a strategy for every individual recall which sets forth how widely it will check on a companys performance in recalling the concerned product. In case of a Class I recall, for instance, FDA would check to ensure that each defective product has been recalled or reconditioned. However, for a Class III recall, the FDA can decide that it merely needs to spot check to ensure the product is off the market.
