Olaax Corp. is recalling the company’s dietary supplement sold under the brand name Maxiloss Weight Advanced Softgels because they contain undeclared Sibutramine. FDA testing found the drug in the supplement. Sibutramine was a previously approved controlled substance that was removed from the market in October 2010 because it can substantially increase blood pressure and/or pulse rate in some patients. This may be a significant health risk to anyone with a history of coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, or stroke. No illnesses or injuries have been reported to date.
The recall includes all lot numbers and known to be counterfeit lot numbers of authentic lots. Any packaging types different from those listed are counterfeit. Any lot numbers not listed are counterfeit and are also recalled.
The supplement is packaged in a green or blue box containing 3 X 12 blister packs per box. Each box is stamped “Batch Number: 001”. The product was sold to distributors nationwide and known to be counterfeit versions are sold online. It was distributed nationwide in the United States from January 2011 to November 2012.
Olaxx Corp. can’t guarantee the authenticity of products in the marketplace. Any customer who has any Maxiloss Weight Advanced, regardless of lot number, should throw it away. For questions and more information, call Olaax at 1-863-648-9581.
