## Why This Recall is Important
Multivitamins are widely used by individuals for health and wellness, but their safety packaging plays a vital role in preventing accidental poisoning—especially in homes with children. The **lack of child-resistant packaging** on the recalled products violates established safety standards and increases the risk of poisoning if ingested inappropriately.
Accidental poisoning in children is one of the leading causes of emergency hospitalizations globally. Even a small dose of improperly secured supplements can result in devastating health consequences. This recall is particularly urgent to prevent potential injuries and fatalities related to these products.
