The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a recall notice for vitafusion gummy vitamins, including kid’s products after the manufacturer discovered metallic mesh in certain lots.
On Tuesday, Church & Dwight Co., Inc recalled seven types of gummy vitamins after an investigation into consumer reports of mesh in the products. The recalled gummy vitamins include:
- vitafusion Kids Melatonin, 50 count
- vitafusion FiberWell, 220 count
- vitafusion SleepWell, 250 count
- vitafusion MultiVites, 150 count
- vitafusion Melatonin, 44 count
- vitafusion Melatonin, 140 count
- vitafusion FiberWell, 90 count
The gummy vitamin recall is limited to products manufactured between Oct. 29 and Nov. 3, 2020. The products were sold in-store and online between Nov. 13 and April 9. Recalled products can be identified using their Universal Product Code (UPC) and Lot Code. The UPC and lot codes subject to this recall can be found on the FDA’s notice.
While no injuries have been reported, metallic mesh can cause digestive tract damage, warns the agency, and consumers should not consume any of the recalled gummy vitamins.
Consumers can contact Church & Dwight’s customer service line at 1 (800) 981-4710 for a full refund. After contacting the manufacturer for a refund, consumers should throw out the recalled gummy vitamins.
Top Class Actions will continue to monitor this and other recalls in the interest of consumer safety. While no legal action related to this gummy vitamin recall has been reported, manufacturer Chruch & Dwight has been accused of falsely marketing certain products. Indeed, just last year, a federal judge refused to dismiss a class action claiming that Church & Dwight falsely advertised certain multivitamins as “complete.”

Please add me
I received a letter on 4/29/2021 in regards to this recall on the sugar-free FiberWell gummies…although the lot code does not match the recall numbers given, I still have issues to my body since taking them…my body, especially my neck muscles, have been giving me the most intense muscle spasms, causing me to go to the emergency room because of being in so much pain…I’ve never really had any issues like this before, but this pain in my neck area has been an on-going thing for the past few months…I have been trying to figure out WHY this is happening…could this be another side effect?…the lot # on my bottle is WA03329708…Vitafusion Fiber Well sugar free gummies!
I buy these for my son
I just got a letter in the mail yesterday. I bought those vitamins like 4 or 5 months ago. I’m the only one who takes them and it was a huge bottle from cosco. I finished them like a month ago. I did not know there was a recall until yesterday. And yes I’ve been having stomach issues and there trying to figure out why I never feel good. I am very concerned now because I ate the whole bottle and there was 2 or 300 hundred of them. What should I do?
Add me please
Add me. My husband and I take a few of these.
My question to the other people responding….if your stomach was hurting and you got “sick” after taking….wht didn’t you stop taking them???
