On May 1, 2009, the FDA advised consumers of the potential risk of heart attack, stroke and other injuries associated with the use of Hydroxycut dietary supplements distributed by Iovate Health Sciences Inc., Oakville, Ontario Canada and distributed by Iovate Health Sciences U.S.A., Inc. of Blasdell, NY.

The FDA warned consumers to immediately stop use of the product after having several serious adverse events associated with Hydroxycut, including cases of liver damage or failure, seizures, rhabdomyolysis (a type of muscle damage that can lead to other dangerous problems, such as kidney failure), and cardiovascular problems, ranging in severity from irregular heart beat to a heart attack and stroke.


Discuss a possible lawsuit if you had a stroke after taking a Hydroxycut pill.

If you or a loved one had a stroke or experienced another serious side effect or injury after ingesting one of the Hydroxycut diet supplements involved in the FDA recall, the Hydroxycut attorneys at our firm may be able to help you seek compensation for health problems sustained after a heart attack or other injury from Hydroxycut products.
