Which Products Pose a Risk?

In the US, Ambrosia Brands LLC distributes Rosabella moringa capsules. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has recommended that the firm issue a recall, but that has not yet happened.

Rosabella brand morinaga powder capsules are sold in white and green plastic jars. The affected products have expiration dates ranging from 3/2027 to 11/2027 and lot codes ranging from 5020591 to 5100048. To see a complete list, click here.

Rosabella Moringa Powder Drug-Resistant Salmonella Outbreak

Health officials have confirmed seven illnesses in seven states are included in this outbreak, but many more people are likely sick. Three people have been hospitalized.

DNA fingerprinting tests on the Salmonella Newport cultured from all patients show they match. This means patients were exposed to the same source of contamination. Health officials have interviewed three of the patients, and all three reported taking these capsules before they became ill. The FDA and state health departments are working to determine the source of the contamination.

Because all seven cultures of this Salmonella Newport outbreak strain show predicted resistance to 15 common antibiotics, it is considered extensively drug resistant (XDR). This means patients requiring treatment may need a different medicine.

Antibiotic-Resistant Salmonella Newport

This is the first time a U.S. outbreak has been linked to this “extensively drug-resistant strain of Salmonella Newport with an NDM-1 gene,” according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

XDR Salmonella shows resistance to:

  • All first-line antibiotics
  • Common alternative antibiotics

May also be resistant to:

  • Multiple β-lactam antibiotics

The CDC advises doctors to consult an infectious disease specialist for treatment of patients with XDR Salmonella infections and monitor them for treatment failure.

Salmonella Symptoms

Symptoms of a Salmonella infection usually develop within six to 72 hours and include:

  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Abdominal cramps
  • Diarrhea that is sometimes bloody
  • Fever
