The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is warning consumers to immediately stop use of the product Lipokinetix, marketed as a
dietary supplement (for weight loss) by Syntrax Innovations, Inc. FDA has received multiple reports of persons who developed
liver injury or
liver failure while using Lipokinetix. The product contains norephedrine (also known as
phenylpropanolamine or PPA),
caffeine, yohimbine, diiodothyronine, and sodium usniate. FDA is also advising consumers to consult their physician if they are experiencing symptoms possibly associated with this product, particularly
nausea, weakness or
fatigue, fever, abdominal pain, or any change in
skin color.
If you have experienced serious health problems after taking Lipokinetix, it may be important to
contact an attorney who can help you protect your legal rights. Please keep in mind that there may be
time limits within which you must commence suit.
