60,000 bottles of popular women’s vitamins recalled over risk of iron poisoning to children

 

Iron poisoning is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under 6.

IRVINE, Calif. — Supplement company iHerb has recalled about 60,000 iron-containing dietary supplements under the California Gold Nutrition label because their packaging violates federal child-resistant requirements, posing a deadly poisoning risk to young children.

The recall, announced June 26, affects three products: Daily Prenatal Multi, Ultamins Women’s Multivitamin, and Ultamins Women’s 50+ Multivitamin. The supplements were sold online through Amazon.com, Walmart.com, Target.com and other websites from January 2019 through April 2025 for $8 to $18.

The recalled supplements contain iron, which federal law requires to be packaged in child-resistant containers under the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. The bottles and blister packs fail to meet these standards, creating a risk of fatal poisoning if swallowed by young children.

No injuries have been reported in connection with the recall.

The Daily Prenatal Multivitamin comes in white bottles with white lids and gold border labels, containing 60 fish gelatin softgel supplements. The Women’s Multivitamin and Women’s 50+ Multivitamin feature dark purple packaging with gold border labels, each containing 60 capsules in foil packaging.

Consumers should immediately secure the recalled supplements away from children and contact iHerb for refunds. To receive a refund, customers should email ProductRecall@iherb.com with the subject line “Iron Supplement Refund” and include their name, product names and quantities, and photographic evidence of destruction showing their initials and date.

The manufacturer, iHerb LLC, doing business as Madre Labs LLC of Irvine, California, is contacting all known purchasers directly.

Iron poisoning is a leading cause of fatal poisoning in children under 6. The Consumer Product Safety Commission requires iron-containing supplements with 30 milligrams or more of iron per dosage unit to be packaged in child-resistant containers.
