ST LOUIS (MD Consult) - Universal ABC Beauty Supply International, Inc, of Brooklyn, NY, has been informed by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that FDA lab analyses of the dietary supplements distributed by the company were found to contain undeclared sibutramine, an FDA-approved drug used as an appetite suppressant for weight loss.

These dietary supplements are not supposed to contain sibutramine. The FDA has not approved these products, therefore the safety and effectiveness of these products are unknown.

The FDA said these products pose a threat to consumers because sibutramine is known to substantially increase blood pressure and/or pulse rate in some patients.

圣路易斯(MD Consult)——美国食品药物管理局(FDA)已向纽约布鲁克林的Universal ABC Beauty Supply国际公司发出一份通报，称 FDA实验室分析发现该公司分销的膳食补充剂含有未经申报的西布曲明，后者为FDA批准的药物，可通过抑制食欲达到减肥疗效。

 

而这些膳食补充剂本不该含有西布曲明。美国FDA尚未批准此类膳食补充剂产品，因此其安全性和有效性目前仍无从得知。

FDA指出，这些产品对消费者构成了威胁，因为众所周知，在某些患者中西布曲明可显著升高血压和/或脉搏次数。它还可能对有冠状动脉疾病、充血性心力衰竭、心律不齐或中风病史的患者有很大的风险。
