On Aug. 2, the FDA announced that Je Dois L’avoir Boutique of Hanford, California had voluntarily recalled its 365 Skinny High Intensity Pills and 365 Skinny Emergency Boutique pills, both used for weight loss, and sold in 30-count bottles. The 365 Skinny formula is supposedly the stronger of the two formulas, and the 365 Skinny Emergency was marketed as allegedly being safer for people with high blood pressure, diabetes, and other medical issues, according to the recall notice.

The Je Dois L’Avoir supplements were pulled from the market after it was discovered that they contain sibutramine, once sold as prescription drug Meridia in the U.S. until it was withdrawn from the market over concerns about the health risk it presented to consumers. “The 365 Skinny High Intensity Pills and 365 Skinny Emergency Boutique potentially can cause serious health risks such as seizures, tachycardia, palpitations, heart attacks and allergic reactions,” the recall notice states. In Oct. 2010, the FDA announced its recommendation that medical professionals stop prescribing Meridia to patients due to the risk of cardiovascular health problems associated with its use. Manufacturer Abbott Laboratories subsequently withdrew the mediation from the market. While the recall notice states that there have been no cases of illness or injury related to use of the recalled supplements, anyone who purchased them should still stop taking them immediately. Je Dois L’avoir is contacting customers by email to arrange for the return of the affected products. If you have the recalled products in your possession or have questions about the recall, you can also contact Je Dois L’avoir at 559-302-6215 on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. PST or via email at [email protected] If you have taken either of the recalled supplements and believe that you are experiencing adverse effects, contact a medical professional immediately. The recalled Je Dois L’avoir pills are the latest in a long list of supplements to be pulled from the market due to contamination with prescription drugs.ae0fcc31ae342fd3a1346ebb1f342fcb RELATED: If You Have These 2 Popular Seasonings, Throw Them Out Now, FDA Says.
