Bee Pollen Recalled for Undeclared Drugs

REFA Enterprises, LLC is voluntarily recalling Forever Beautiful Bee Pollen and Forever Beautiful Infinity because they contain undeclared Sibutramine or a combination of both Sibutramine and Phenolphthalein, discovered through FDA analysis.

Sibutramine is an appetite suppressant that was removed from the U.S. market in October 2010 because of increased risk of seizures, heart attacks, arrhythmia, and strokes. Phenolphthalein is an ingredient that was used in over-the-counter laxatives, but because of concerns of carcinogenicity, it is not currently approved for use in this country. These undeclared ingredients make the products unapproved new drugs. The products can interact in life-threatening ways with other medications and can be dangerous on their own. Sibutramine can increase blood pressure, and phenolphthalein could cause irregular heartbeat, cancer, and serious GI disturbances. No illnesses or adverse events have been reported.

Forever Beautiful Bee Pollen is packaged in bottles of 60 capsules and distributed via the internet to consumers nationwide from July 7, 2014 to November 3, 2014. The UPC number is 6333090804632. Forever Beautiful Infinity is packaged in bottles of 60 capfuls and was also distributed via the internet from July 7, 2014 to November 3, 2014. The UPC number for that product is 633090804649.

REFA Enterprises is notifying customers by mail and is arranging for return of all recalled products. If you have purchased these products, stop using them and return them.

Contact a doctor if you have experienced any problems that may be related to using these products. You can report adverse reactions to the FDA’s MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting program.
