THE Therapeutic Goods
Administration has issued an alert
for consumers who have purchased
a product called 1 Body Beautiful
over the internet or from retailers,
after laboratory analyses confirmed
the presence of sibutramine and
phenolphthalein in the product.
The move follows a warning from
the Hong Kong Department of

that as the product has not been
assessed for quality, safety or
efficacy it may not be legally
supplied in Australia.
Consumers who have purchased
the product are advised to cease
using it and discard any remainder.The above article was sent to subscribers in Pharmacy Daily's issue from 26 Jul 10 To see the full newsletter, see the embedded issue below or CLICK HERE to download Pharmacy Daily from 26 Jul 10
