09/19/2013

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers not to purchase or use "Instant Slim" also known as “收腹提臀果香型减肥胶囊” or “Shou Fu Ti Tun Guo Xiang Xing Jian Fei Jiao Nang” (translates – Abdomen Hips Fruit Flavored Slimming Capsules) also known as “Сокращать живот и повышать 3ад” (translates – Reducing Belly and Lifting the Buttocks), a product promoted and sold for weight loss on various websites, including www.instantslim.org, and in some retail stores.

FDA laboratory analysis confirmed that "Instant Slim" also known as “收腹提臀果香型减肥胶囊” or “Shou Fu Ti Tun Guo Xiang Xing Jian Fei Jiao Nang” also known as “Сокращать живот и повышать 3ад” contains sibutramine.  Sibutramine is a controlled substance that was removed from the market in October 2010 for safety reasons.  The product poses a threat to consumers because sibutramine is known to substantially increase blood pressure and/or pulse rate in some patients and may present a significant risk for patients with a history of coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, or stroke.  This product may also interact, in life-threatening ways, with other medications a consumer may be taking.

Laboratory analysis also confirmed that "Instant Slim" also known as “收腹提臀果香型减肥胶囊” or “Shou Fu Ti Tun Guo Xiang Xing Jian Fei Jiao Nang” also known as “Сокращать живот и повышать 3ад” contains phenolphthalein. Phenolphthalein was an ingredient in some over-the-counter (OTC) laxative products until 1999, when FDA reclassified the ingredient as “not generally recognized as safe and effective.”
