Food supplements urgently recalled over fears they could cause abnormal heartbeat
Share:
Two food supplements have been urgently recalled because they contain higher levels of vitamin D3 than written on the label. TriOn Pharma has pulled its Aactive D3 Drops and Aactive D3 Solution because of the labelling error. Too much vitamin D can cause nausea, vomiting, weakness, lethargy, constipation, aches and pains, thirst, polyuria, weight loss and cardiac dysrhythmias, which is an abnormal heartbeat.
The batch code for the drops is LS23317 and the batch code for the solution is LS23318. Both products included in the recall have a best before date of November 2025. The batch code and best before date can be found on the outer box and the bottle label.
If you have purchased one of the affected products, you are advised not to consume it and instead, return it to your nearest store for a full refund. For more information, you can contact TriOn Pharma on 02392 255770 or info@trionpharrna.co.uk. TriOn Pharma said in a recall notice published online: “TriOn Pharma is recalling specific batches of Aactive 0 3 2000 iu/ml after retesting showed out of specification results in the assay. The listed batches are being recalled as a precautionary measure. No other batches are impacted.”.
For all product recalls, you can check the Food Standards Agency and Chartered Trading Standards Institute websites. You should also notice recall notices in stores if they've pulled a product from shelves. Other recalls you should be aware of include Tesco pulling packs of meat after an incorrect use-by date was used.
