The dietary supplement BEST SLIM is being recalled because it contains sibutramine, which is a controlled substance that was removed from the market in October 2010 after a study found that anyone taking it had an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. Sibutramine substantially increases blood pressure and pulse rate and presents a significant risk to patients with a history of coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, or stroke.
BEST SLIM is sold in 40 pill lots with lot number 109400 and expiration date December 31, 2016. The product is distributed by CTV Best Group. The product was sold through retail stores and internet sales between April 2013 and July 2013.
If you purchased this product, destroy it or return it for a refund. Do not consume this product. Adverse reactions by anyone who took these pills can be reported to the FDA’s MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting program.
