Reason for Recall
There is a possibility that the product was packaged in the wrong
box. Specifically, the product may have been placed inside a BioMend box instead of a
BioMend Extend box. The only difference between the two boxes is the
product trade name. The label placed on the box and on the product packaged inside the box is
correct. The Instructions for Use inside the box are correct.
