FDA Recalls Herbal Medication Due to Workout Supplement Dangers
Numerous products on the market claim they will enhance athletic performance, but many users don’t realize is that these products may be doing more harm than good. The attorneys with Rainwater, Holt & Sexton explain that Workout Supplement Dangers have prompted the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to take action by recalling certain products.
According to an FDA Press Release, Mega Slim Herbal Appetite Management pills, manufactured by YoungYou International, are being recalled because they contain the undeclared ingredient, dimethylamylamine (DMAA), a stimulant linked to adverse health conditions, including:
- Elevated Blood Pressure
- Cardiac Arrest
- Heart Attack
- Stroke
- Organ Failure
- Seizures
- Death
Anyone in possession of the affected products is instructed to halt use immediately and return the product to the manufacturer for a full refund. Anyone who has been harmed by the product should not only report the incident to the FDA, but Rainwater, Holt & Sexton also encourages injured individuals to discuss their legal options with a qualified attorney immediately. Doing so can help protect victims’ rights to compensation.
