On May 1, 2009, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warned consumers to immediately stop using Hydroxycut, manufactured by Iovate Health Sciences, Inc., of Oakville, Ontario and distributed by Iovate Health Sciences USA Inc. of Blasdell, New York. Iovate has agreed to recall Hydroxycut from the market.
Hydroxycut can cause serious health issues
The FDA has already received 23 reports of serious health problems ranging from jaundice and elevated liver enzymes, an indicator of potential liver injury, to liver damage requiring liver transplant. One death due to liver failure has been reported by the FDA. Other health issues include seizures, cardiovascular disorders, and rhabdomyolysis, a type of muscle damage that can lead to other serious health problems such as kidney failure.
Symptoms of liver injury include nausea, vomiting, light-colored stools, excessive fatigue, weakness, stomach or abdominal pain, itching and loss of appetite.
