Public Alert: 032/2021 – Palisades Park HIS Issues Voluntary Recall of Miss Slim Due to the Presence of Undeclared Sibutramine

,

The recall of Miss Slim was due to the presence of sibutramine in the product.

Miss Slim is marked as a dietary supplement. The presence of sibutramine in Miss Slim renders it an unapproved drug for which safety and efficacy has not been established and therefore subject to a recall.

Risk Associated:
