Purina Expands Voluntary Pro Plan Recall
News Release
WASHINGTON — Nestlé Purina PetCare Co. is expanding its voluntary recall of Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets EL Elemental (“PPVD EL”) prescription dry dog food because of a supplier error resulting in potentially elevated levels of vitamin D in two additional product lots, which precede the production dates of the previously recalled lots.
The original announcement was made on Feb 8. No other Purina pet care products are affected.
The expansion comes following an investigation prompted by Purina that uncovered new information about a production error from a U.S. supplier that was made only to this specific formula and resulted in potentially elevated levels of vitamin D.
