Nature Made Vitamins Recalled For Possible Contamination

Pharmavite LLC is recalling some Nature Made vitamins due to possible salmonella or staphylococcus contamination, the Northridge, Calif.-based company said in a press release Tuesday. Recalled products include Nature Made gummy multivitamins and supplements containing vitamin C, B vitamins and folic acid. Salmonella can cause serious and sometimes fatal infection in the elderly, young and immunosuppressed. In some cases, infection can cause infected aneurysms, endocarditis and arthritis. Staph in food may lead to food poisoning. Common symptoms of both include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain.
