Boots has recalled ‘Boots Multivitamins Supplements’ because they have been incorrectly packed with multivitamins containing iron, warns Halton Borough Council Trading Standards
This resulted in vitamin K not being present within the supplement and iron incorrectly added to the supplements instead.
Iron has not been mentioned on the label. This means the product is a possible health risk to individuals who may also be consuming iron supplements in addition to these multivitamins.
This affects multivitamins sold between 12 and 19 January 2021 only.
