The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) just announced that it informed Globe All Wellness, LLC that its Slim Xtreme™ Herbal Slimming Capsule weight loss dietary supplement—sold by a seller not authorized by Globe All Wellness, LLC to sell the product—contains an undeclared drug ingredient. FDA lab analyses of the dietary supplement found that the product contains undeclared Sibutramine. Because the FDA has not approved Sibutramine, the safety and efficacy of the recalled Slim Xtreme™ Herbal Slimming Capsule is unknown.
Sibutramine was marketed as <"https://www.yourlawyer.com/topics/overview/meridia">Meridia, a drug no longer available in the U.S. The manufacturer stopped producing the drug based clinical study data that found that those taking Sibutramine suffered an increased risk of cardiovascular events, including heart attack and stroke, PubMedHealth explained.
The FDA noted that all lots of the dietary supplement Slim Xtreme™ Herbal Slimming Capsule, which is delivered in 30 Capsules/Bottles, are being recalled. The recalled Slim Xtreme™ Herbal Slimming Capsule were sold and distributed nationwide via the Internet and at the company’s headquarters in Hollywood, Florida.
The FDA states that the recalled Slim Xtremeâ„¢ Herbal Slimming Capsule poses a threat to consumers because Sibutramine is known to substantially increase blood pressure and/or pulse rate in some patients and may present a significant risk for patients with a history of coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, or stroke.
To date, no illnesses or injuries have been reported to Globe All Wellness, LLC in connection with this product and this recall does not affect the sales and distribution of Globe All Wellness, LLC’s other products.
