What class recall involves use or exposure that is not likely to cause adverse health consequences?

Class I recall
Class II recall
Class III recall
Class IV recall

The correct answer is: Class I recall

The classification of recalls in the pharmaceutical and medical device industries is crucial for public safety. A Class II recall specifically pertains to products for which use or exposure may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, but the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote. In contrast, a Class I recall involves products that are likely to cause serious adverse health consequences or death, making that option incorrect. Class III recalls are for products that are not likely to cause any adverse health consequences, but they are more about compliance rather than health risks. Class IV does not exist as a formal category within this recall classification system. Thus, a Class II recall appropriately describes situations where the exposure could lead to less severe health risks, which aligns with your inquiry regarding scenarios not likely to result in adverse health consequences.
