Balkin & Eisbrouch Attorney's Hydroxycut Headquarters - Hackensack, NJ May 5th, 2009 Balkin & Eisbrouch (www.800results.com), a leading local and national law firm in the field of Hydroxycut litigation, has announced that it will be pursuing claims against Lovate Health Sciences, the makers of weight loss supplement Hydroxycut. On May 1st, 2009, the Food and Drug Administration of the United States issued a formal warning against the use of the following Hydroxycut products due to the severe risk of liver damage:

  • Hydroxycut Regular Rapid Release Caplets
  • Hydroxycut Caffeine-Free Rapid Release Caplets
  • Hydroxycut Hardcore Liquid Caplets
  • Hydroxycut Max Liquid Caplets
  • Hydroxycut Regular Drink Packets

  • Hydroxycut Max Drink Packets
  • Hydroxycut Liquid Shots
  • Hydroxycut Hardcore RTDs (Ready-to-Drink)
  • Hydroxycut Max Aqua Shed
  • Hydroxycut 24

Balkin & Eisbrouch's Hydroxycut Attorney team advises anyone with adverse symptoms from the consumption of Hydroxycut to contact their health provider immediately. These symptoms include the following:

  • Jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes and brown urine)
  • nausea
  • vomiting
  • light-colored stools
  • excessive fatigue
  • weakness
  • stomach
  • abdominal pain
  • itching
  • loss of appetite

The Hydroxycut Attorneys at Balkin & Eisbrouch have been investigating claims against Hydroxycut for some time. Balkin & Eisbrouch opened a Hydroxycut investigation in June of 2008 after seeing suspicious claims advertised on TV about Hydroxycut's weight loss formula. "This really comes as no surprise," Says co-managing Partner, David Eisbrouch. "The FDA doesn't have a formal approval process for so called herbal supplements,' and products like Hydroxycut prey off innocent people who feel they need to lose weight or look better."

Co-managing partner Chuck Balkin adds, "People really need to see this as a wake up call. Neither Hydroxycut, nor other supplements are magic bullets. Losing weight should be supervised by your Doctor and include diet and exercise." The Hydroxycut Attorneys at Balkin & Eisbrouch advise anyone to consult their Doctor before beginning an herbal supplement program to their Diet.
