What to do if you own a recalled Vita Health Products product

  1. Find the lot code. Look on the bottom of the bottle or the bottom flap of the box. Lot codes are typically a 6–10 character alphanumeric string.
  2. Match against the recall. Open the official recall notice (linked above) and check whether your lot code is in the affected list. Recalls usually only affect specific batches — not every bottle of a recalled product is impacted.
  3. Stop use if affected. If your lot is listed, do not consume the product.
  4. Contact Vita Health Products. Reach out to Vita Health Products customer service for refund or replacement.
  5. Report adverse effects. If you've experienced symptoms after using the product, report to Health Canada via the MedEffect Canada portal and consult a healthcare provider.
  6. Save the documentation. Keep your refund confirmation and a photo of the lot code in case follow-up testing is required.
