Agency Also Sends Warning Letter to Manufacturer of Products for Selling Dangerous Product
July 28, 2009 — The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a nationwide alert warning consumers to cease purchasing and consuming body building supplements that contain steroids. Furthermore, the agency has contacted the manufacturer of the supplements, American Cellular Laboratories Inc., and issued them a warning letter for selling these synthetic steroids as “diet supplements.” Per the FDA, these products are not diet supplements, but rather misbranded drugs.
The products listed in the warning letter are as follows:
-TREN-Xtreme
-MASS Xtreme
-ESTRO Xtreme
-AH-89-Xtreme
-HMG Xtreme
-MMA-3 Xtreme
-VNS-9 Xtreme
-TT-40-Xtreme
These products are sold on the Internet and in some stores and the FDA is strongly urging consumers to stop taking these supplements immediately because they contain unapproved new drugs and they have not been recognized as safe and effective. Consumers taking body building supplements that claim to contain steroids or steroid-like substances should stop taking them immediately. Consumers should also consult a health care professional if they suspect they are experiencing problems associated with the products.
If you or someone you know has suffered an injury from a dangerous drug or defective product, you may be entitled to compensation for your damages and injuries.
