Dream Body Weight Loss is recalling all lots of Dream Body Extreme Gold 800-mg 30 gold capsules, Dream Body 450-mg 30 white capsules and Dream Body Advanced 400-mg 30 purple capsules.
The products contain sibutramine, an appetite suppressant that was withdrawn from the U.S. market in 2010. 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.
This undeclared ingredient makes these products unapproved new drugs for which safety and efficacy have not been established. The products may also interact in life-threatening ways with other medications a consumer may be taking.
The company says it has not received any reports of adverse events related to this recall to date.
The recalled products, used as a dietary supplement and packaged in clear packer jars and brown foil packets with UPC codes 6903023120128, were distributed Nationwide from January 2013, to June 16, 2016, via retail sales and internet transactions.
