A unit of GlaxoSmithKline is recalling five lots of Benefiber fiber supplement powder due to possible contamination by bits of plastic, according to a company recall notice posted on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration website.

GSK Consumer Healthcare said green plastic pieces or shavings from bottle caps may be present in the product, presenting a potential risk of choking or physical soft-tissue injury.

GSK said the products were distributed from late October through late January to retail stores and online retailers throughout the U.S., adding that it has received one consumer complaint of a green particle found inside a bottle.
