Kirkman 5-MTHF Capsules Have Labeling Error: 5000mcg Folic Acid Listed Instead of 1000mcg
Kirkman recalls 120-count 5-MTHF Methyltetrahydrofolate capsules due to labeling error showing 5000mcg Folic Acid instead of 1000mcg per serving. This does not pose a safety risk but may cause confusion about actual folate content.
Labeling error. The 5-MTHF 1mg label incorrectly declares 5000mcg Folic Acid instead 1000mcg Folic Acid per serving in the Supplement Facts, but correctly declares Folate 1667mcg DFE. The front label correctly declares product as 5-MTHF Methyltetrahydrofolate 1mg (or 1000mcg).
