South African regulators have recalled a batch of Yaz Plus contraceptive pills due to a packaging error.
The affected batch contains an incorrect number of active pills, potentially rendering them ineffective for preventing pregnancy.
Manufacturer Bayer has urged women using pills from the recalled batch, WEW96J (expiring March 2026), to stop use and seek medical advice immediately.
Consumers with affected packs should return them to pharmacies for a full refund or replacement, ensuring their contraceptive needs are met.
