FDA Warns Consumers to Stop Using Hydroxycut Products
Dietary Supplements Linked to One Death; Pose Risk of Liver Injury
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is warning consumers to immediately stop using Hydroxycut products by Iovate Health Sciences Inc., of Oakville, Ontario and distributed by Iovate Health Sciences USA Inc. of Blasdell, N.Y. Some Hydroxycut products are associated with a number of serious liver injuries. Iovate has agreed to recall Hydroxycut products from the market.
The FDA has 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 to the FDA. Other health problems reported include seizures; cardiovascular disorders; and rhabdomyolysis, a type of muscle damage that can lead to other serious health problems such as kidney failure.
Liver injury, although rare, was reported by patients at the doses of Hydroxycut recommended on the bottle. Symptoms of liver injury include jaundice (yellowing of the skin or whites of the eyes) and brown urine. Other symptoms include nausea, vomiting, light-colored stools, excessive fatigue, weakness, stomach or abdominal pain, itching, and loss of appe e.
“The FDA urges consumers to discontinue use of Hydroxycut products in order to avoid any undue risk. Adverse events are rare, but exist. Consumers should consult a physician or other health care professional if they are experiencing symptoms possibly associated with these products,” said Linda Katz, M.D., interim chief medical officer of the FDA’s Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition.
Hydroxycut products are dietary supplements that are marketed for weight-loss, as fat burners, as energy-enhancers, as low carb diet aids, and for water loss under the Iovate and MuscleTech brand names. The list of products being recalled by Iovate currently includes:
Hydroxycut Regular Rapid Release Caplets

Hydroxycut Hardcore Liquid Caplets
Hydroxycut Max Liquid Caplets
Hydroxycut Regular Drink Packets
Hydroxycut Caffeine-Free Drink Packets

Hydroxycut Max Drink Packets

Hydroxycut Hardcore RTDs (Ready-to-Drink)
Hydroxycut Max Aqua Shed
Hydroxycut 24
Hydroxycut Carb Control
Hydroxycut Natural
Although the FDA has not received reports of serious liver-related adverse reactions for all Hydroxycut products, Iovate has agreed to recall all the products listed above. Hydroxycut Cleanse and Hoodia products are not affected by the recall. Consumers who have any of the products involved in the recall are advised to stop using them and to return them to the place of purchase. The agency has not yet determined which ingredients, dosages, or other health-related factors may be associated with risks related to these Hydroxycut products. The products contain a variety of ingredients and herbal extracts.
Health care professionals and consumers are encouraged to report serious adverse events (side effects) or product quality problems with the use of these products to the FDA's MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting program online, by regular mail, fax or phone.
I never took this stuff. I couldn't make it past the nose bleeding, and the light headiness possible side effects. I honestly think steroids has less side effects than this stuff.

Thats not easy for some people. It took me a while to get to that point. I was just never a fan of taking loads of tablets.
The wife mentioned wanting to try that and I told her no way. I don't trust any of that stuff. I agree, simple exercise and watch what you eat and you'll do fine.
I have a whole Bottle I took it a few times and stopped. I can make you a deal on it.
Being overweight is a problem that anyone can lick.
i wonder if these people took the recommended dosage or went overboard.
You know that is what happened. You also need to drink plenty of liquids when you are taking it.
A little something to wet your whistle always helps. viva la moisture.
Eat, Lift, Sleep.
The rest of the is fairy tale shortcuts.
Surprise Surprise.
People want to believe there is some secret formula other than exercise and moderation.
In my never ending quest to find the suitable replacement for steriods, I've taken a lotta , and I have taken Hydroxy-cut hardcore and nothing happend to me. No side effects and no results either.
A friend of ours sister is in an Hydroxycut ad. I asked our friend's wife if the sister really lost weight from using it and she said no...that she cut back on eating and started working out a lot
Imagine that.
Yeah FYI MuscleTech products are widely known in the fitness/bodybuilding community to suck and essentially are scams. They pay lifters like Ronnie Coleman a butt load of money to advertise for them, but in the end it's sham. Most of there products are a bunch of random herbs grinded together with some caffienne in them. And for people who have been caffienne deprived it doesnt' work and most lifters are.
Sounds like a fun time
