Awards & recognition
C.L. Mike Schmidt Published by C.L. Mike Schmidt

A Palmyra, WI., establishment is now recalling Cataplex C, ACP, and Pancreatrophin PMG dietary supplements because they have the potential to be contaminated with salmonella, a potentially deadly pathogen. This recall was initiated after a routine inspection by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) revealed that one of the ingredients used in the products contained the bacteria. Signs and symptoms of salmonella poisoning (salmonellosis) may include fever, diarrhea (which may be watery or bloody), nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.

What’s the problem?

These products all come in tablet form, and were distributed in 60 and 200 cc amber glass bottles with a use-by date of 5/13, which can be found on both the bottles and the boxes.

Consumers who have purchased any of these three products from the specific lot codes are urged to discard them immediately or return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Anyone concerned about a salmonella poisoning illness should contact their healthcare provider right away. To date, no illnesses have been reported in connection with this recall.

Salmonella Poisoning (Salmonellosis)

Salmonella is a common foodborne pathogen that can cause potentially life-threatening illnesses in children, the elderly, and those with otherwise compromised immune systems. Signs and symptoms of salmonellosis may include (but are not limited to):

  • fever
  • diarrhea (which may be watery or bloody)
  • nausea
  • vomiting
  • abdominal pain

In severe cases, salmonella infections can result in the pathogen infiltrating the bloodstream and producing arterial infections (i.e. infected aneurysms), endocarditis, and arthritis.
