A recall doesn't mean your pills are affected

Drug recalls are issued by lot (specific batches, identified by lot numbers / NDC) — not for every bottle of OMEGA-3-ACID ETHYL ESTERS ever made. To know if yours is involved, match the lot codes on the recall below against your bottle, or ask your pharmacist. Do not stop a prescribed medication because of a recall without talking to your pharmacist or prescriber — stopping can be more dangerous than the recall. The Class is the FDA's risk judgment (Class I = reasonable probability of serious harm or death), not a measurement that harm occurred; most recalls are voluntary and Class II/III.
