| Australia: Pure Fat Three Days Reduce Weight capsules (English Only) |
| |
The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) is aware that some Australian consumers may have purchased the product Pure Fat Three Days Reduce Weight capsules over the internet. The label of this product claims the ingredients to be 100% herbal in origin. However, analysis undertaken by TGA has confirmed the presence of therapeutic quantities of sibutramine in these capsules. TGA advise consumers that sibutramine was a prescription-only medicine supplied in Australia until it was withdrawn in October 2010 due to safety concerns, particularly in patients with history of cardiovascular disease. TGA also advise consumers to cease using them and discard any remaining product if they have purchased them.
Please refer to the following website in TGA for details:

In Hong Kong, there is no record of registration for the above product in pharmaceutical service database.
