Zhen De Shou Fat Loss Capsules Recalled

Presence of Undeclared Sibutramine Poses Serious Health Risks

All lots of Zhen De Shou Fat Loss Capsules sold in 10 count blister cards are being recalled by the manufacturer, Fashion Sanctuary, in conjunction with the FDA.

The diet capsules are being recalled because they have been found to contain undeclared sibutramine, making the product an undeclared drug. Sibutramine is an FDA approved drug used as an appetite suppressant for weight loss. However, because the drug is not listed on the package label, there is a potential threat to consumers because 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.

The capsules were largely sold in the US, via the Internet. They come in a box with an inner foil pouch. Inside the pouch is a blister pack containing light and dark green capsules. This recall affects all lot codes and use by dates.
