WASHINGTON, June 7 (UPI) -- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced the voluntarily recall of Sentinel brand shark cartilage capsules because of possible contamination.
Action Labs Inc. of Anaheim, Calif., began the recall after testing by NBTY Inc., the manufacturer, indicated the capsules might be contaminated with Salmonella, an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and those with weakened immune systems.
The FDA said although multiple lot numbers might have been involved in the recall by NBTY, only NBTY lot number 64951 was purchased, repacked and distributed by Action Labs Inc.
The shark cartilage was sold in bottles of 60 capsules and labeled as Sentinel Shark Cartilage 750mg. A sticker with lot number 064951 and expiration date 07 2009 is located on the bottom of the bottle. The capsules were distributed to retail establishments in Southern California and internationally in Hong Kong.
Customers can contact the company at 714-630-5941.
