A child-safety slip-up at wellness brand Mindbodygreen has triggered a recall of nearly 150,000 bottles of its Ultimate Multivitamin+, after federal regulators found the bottles’ caps do not meet child-resistant standards.
The eight-ounce amber glass bottles each hold 60 iron-containing capsules, a combo that can turn serious fast if a curious kid manages to open the cap. Mindbodygreen says it will give customers with affected bottles free child-resistant replacement caps.
Per the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the recall, announced January 29, covers about 148,370 bottles and carries recall number 26-221. The agency says no injuries have been reported, but is telling consumers to “immediately secure the recalled bottles out of sight and reach of children.” The CPSC recall page lists UPCs, lot numbers and manufacturing dates so buyers can confirm if their bottle is included.
What Was Recalled
As detailed on the Mindbodygreen recall page, the affected bottles were sold on Mindbodygreen.com from November 2021 through November 2025 and were typically priced between $40 and $70, depending on subscription options. The recall covers two UPCs and multiple lot numbers. Each recalled bottle comes as 60 capsules in an eight-ounce amber glass bottle with a black cap.
Mindbodygreen’s page instructs customers to email [email protected] to request a free child-resistant replacement cap.
Why Packaging Matters
The Poison Prevention Packaging Act requires certain substances, including iron-containing drugs and dietary supplements, to be sold in packaging that is difficult for young children to open, industry guidance notes. The Consumer Healthcare Products Association explains how child-resistant packaging is tested and why it exists, and public-health reports show iron is among the leading causes of serious pediatric poisonings.
Ingesting multiple adult iron tablets has been linked to vomiting, seizures, liver injury and, in rare cases, death. For historical data and descriptions of iron-poisoning risks, regulators point to federal health reporting and poison-control guidance.
What To Do If You Have the Product
If you bought Ultimate Multivitamin+, start by securing any bottles out of sight and reach of children. Then contact Mindbodygreen to request the free replacement cap, either through the company recall page or by emailing [email protected].
If you suspect a child has swallowed any capsules, contact the national Poison Help hotline at PoisonHelp or call 1-800-222-1222 right away for immediate guidance.
Mindbodygreen and the recall notice both stress that the issue is with packaging only. The company is not asking customers to discard the product once a child-resistant cap has been obtained and installed.
Not an Isolated Problem
Regulators and news outlets have flagged similar child-resistant-packaging failures on iron supplements in recent months, suggesting recurring compliance problems in the supplement supply chain. National coverage of prior iron-supplement recalls and CPSC guidance on which products must use special closures help explain why the agency moved on this case.

Legal and Regulatory Note
According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the recall states the packaging “violates the mandatory standard for child-resistant packaging” under the Poison Prevention Packaging Act.
Federal law also bars selling a product that is subject to a CPSC-ordered recall, and the commission can pursue remedies or additional enforcement if a firm fails to carry out an effective recall.
