    I saw that on the news yesterday. They said that in rare cases that could occur. I would just check with your doctor if you are using it to make sure it's safe for you.

    While I do think that diet pills like these are unequivocally bad for you, its definitely not because the FDA says so. They condemn and endorse products based solely on what the drug companies tell them to.

    I was going to post this but ran a search first and yep, you guys are totally on top of it! Just another reason to stick with simply being healthier. They're not going to recall fruit veggies and exercise! (well, you know, except for the various salmonella breaks and when they decide running is too high impact ;) )

    *$@#!!! I just bought a new bottle because I stopped taking it, and then I stopped losing weight, and already I have started dropping weight again, and I have never had ANY side effects, and I know I should be doing this all by myself but it is VERY hard for me to drop weight even with a healthy diet and TONS of exercise, and I KNOW this is one big run-on sentence, but I am just BUMMED. Oh well... back to the drawing board.... :grumble:
