Why it was recalled

This recall has been initiated due to confirmation that the Polar Dressing, Knee/MU/Shldr Intelli-Flo-Breg does not meet the required thickness as specified. The dressing in the sterile pouch measures a thickness of 0.010" instead of 0.020". This change in thickness makes the dressing thinner, less durable and subject to tearing. The product is mislabeled.

This product could cause temporary or reversible health problems — stop using it.
