| Australia: Safety advisory - St Nirvana herbal slimming capsules (English Only) |
| |
The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) is aware that some Australian consumers may have purchased the product St Nirvana herbal slimming capsules in bottles and blister packs over the internet. The label of this product claims the ingredients to be 100% herbal in origin. However, analysis undertaken by the TGA Laboratories in Australia has confirmed the presence of therapeutic quantities of sibutramine in these capsules in the plastic bottle packs. Consumers are advised that sibutramine was a prescription-only medicine supplied in Australia until it was withdrawn in October 2010 due to safety concerns, particularly in patients with history of cardiovascular disease.
Please refer to the following website in TGA for details:
