Odessa, Florida — Stratford Care USA, Inc. is recalling multiple brands of Omega-3 supplements for cats and dogs due to potentially elevated levels of Vitamin A.

Stratford Care is taking this action after receiving a single consumer report of dogs exhibiting signs of Vitamin A toxicity after consuming the supplement, to date.
The affected supplements were distributed throughout the United States in veterinary clinics, distribution centers, retail stores, and online retailers such as Amazon.
The supplements are packaged in a white plastic container containing 60 soft gels. A marking on the bottom of the container states “lot 31133 EXP 04/13/23” and “lot 30837 EXP 10/26/22”.
