This herbal supplement has been recalled for containing undeclared prescription drugs

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y.—A herbal supplement that contained undeclared prescription medications, glyburide and metformin, was voluntarily recalled nationwide by Shoppers-Plaza.

Known as a blood sugar or glucose support supplement, Sugarlin Herbal Formula capsules were distributed across the country via a number of websites, including shoppers-plaza.com, and perhaps some physical establishments.

According to a Shoppers-Plaza statement released by the FDA, it is an unapproved medication for whose safety and efficacy have not been established and is therefore subject to recall.

Glyburide and metformin are the supplement’s active components.

Type 2 diabetes is treated with the FDA-approved prescription medication metformin, which is only accessible with a prescription. Rare but dangerous adverse effects include lactic acidosis, which, if left untreated, can result in a potentially fatal accumulation of lactic acid in the blood.

Breathing difficulties, exhaustion, and nausea are among the symptoms. When combined with other blood sugar-lowering drugs, metformin can potentially result in hypoglycemia, which is a dangerous reduction in blood sugar levels.

The active component of some FDA-approved prescription medications for type 2 diabetes is glyburide, which is only accessible with a prescription. Glyburide can cause hypoglycemia, which can be extremely dangerous and even fatal. Fast heartbeat, trembling, perspiration, anxiety, agitation, disorientation, lightheadedness, fatigue, headache, and hunger are typical signs of hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia can rapidly worsen into seizures, a coma, or even death if treatment is not received.

Customers should get in touch with their doctor or healthcare professional right away if they have encountered any problems while using this product.

Distributors, retailers, and consumers who use Fouzee Sugarlin Herbal Formula should cease using it right once and return all of their units to the store where they bought them. Through the same platform that was used to purchase the product, a complete refund will be given.
