NEWS MAY 1, 2009

The FDA has issued a warning for both dieters and body builders today to immediately stop using Hydroxycut, a supplement linked to cases of serious liver damage and at least one death so far.

The FDA said the manufacturer of the popular dietary supplement has now agreed to recall 14 Hydroxycut products. Over 9 million packages were sold last year, the FDA said.

Dr. Linda Katz of the FDA’s food and nutrition division said the agency has received 23 reports of liver problems, including the death of a 19-year-old boy living in the Southwest.

Side effects and symptoms from Hydroxycut includes: jaundice, or yellowing of the skin, and even possible liver failure.

The FDA’s Dr. Katz said it has taken so long to get a handle on the Hydroxycut problem because the cases of liver damage were rare and the FDA has no authority to review supplements before they’re marketed. “Part of the problem is that the FDA looks at dietary supplements from a post-market perspective, and an isolated incident is often difficult to follow,” she said.

If you’ve been hurt or injured in any way from taking Hydroxycut, contact our lawyers and attorneys today as you may be entitled to compenstation for your Hydroxycut side effects injury.
