The Procter & Gamble Company is voluntarily recalling two specific lots of its prescription renal dry cat food as a precautionary measure, as it has the potential to be contaminated with salmonella.
The following products are included:

Product Name                                                  Lot Code              UPC Code

Iams Veterinary Formulas Feline Renal    01384174B4     0 19014 21405 1

Iams Veterinary Formulas Feline Renal    01384174B2     0 19014 21405 1

This product is available by prescription through veterinary clinics throughout the U.S.

No illnesses have been reported. A FDA analysis identified a positive result on the lot codes listed above. Lot codes can be found in the lower right corner on the back of the bag.

Consumers who have purchased dry cat food with these codes should discard it.
