More than 19,000 cans of Dr Pepper Zero Sugar have been recalled in the US over fears of ‘serious adverse health consequences’ to some consumers.
The 19,203 cans have been recalled by Pepsi Beverages Company, which is licensed to manufacture Keurig Dr Pepper products, due to mislabeling.
‘Product labeled to be Zero Sugar contains full sugar product,’ states a notice published by the nation’s agency tasked with ensuring food, drugs and products are safe for the public.
People with diabetes and others who are sensitive to sugar could become seriously ill.
The affected soda was packaged in aluminum cans and sold in packs of 12 and 24. They have the best by date of February 16, 2026, and the product code XXXXRS05165.
They were shipped to three US states: Florida, Georgia and South Carolina.
The company initiated a voluntary recall on May 23 of this year, but the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reclassified it to a Class II level on Thursday.
A Class II recall is ‘a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote’, according to the FDA.
The reclassification comes days after the Coca-Cola Company recalled ‘limited quantities’ of its Topo Chico mineral water sent to five US states over possible bacterial contamination. The affected Topo Chico bottles were sent to 40 retail locations in Arizona, Louisiana, Nevada, New Mexico and Texas.
