Hydroxycut update
July 1, 2010
THE Therapeutic Goods
Administration has revealed its
investigation into claims made that
Hydroxycut Hardcore products in
Australia causing liver toxicity, may
in fact relate to products sourced
overseas.
The TGA has discovered that the
claims, made in Feb this year, may
relate to a case of liver toxicity in
Jun 08, when no Hydroxycut
products were registered on the
ARTG.
As such, the TGA has surmised
that “the product involved was most
likely sourced from outside Australia”.
According to the TGA, Australian
Hydroxycut products which have a
different formulation to their
overseas counterparts, are
recognisable by their ‘AUST L’
number on the front of the carton.
