FDA Notifies Consumers Not to Use Mayhem: AttorneyOne Monitors and Keeps Consumers Informed
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) November 17, 2014 -- AttorneyOne.com, a recognized authority on law, update the website daily regarding all the latest information from the FDA on Mayhem.
The US FDA notified consumers on November 14, not to purchase or use Mayhem because it contains undeclared drug ingredients. Mayhem, manufactured by Chaotic-Labz, is promoted as a dietary supplement to increase appetite and muscle growth.
The reason for the public notification is based on an FDA laboratory analysis which found that the product contains an undeclared corticosteroid and antihistamine. More specifically, Mayhem contains dexamethasone, a corticosteroid commonly used to treat inflammatory conditions, and cyproheptadine, a prescription antihistamine used for seasonal allergy treatment.
Corticosteroids can cause psychiatric problems, high blood sugar levels, and muscle injuries and can impair a person’s ability to fight infections. In high doses or for prolonged period can cause withdrawal symptoms with abrupt discontinuation. Antihistamines may affect mental alertness and cause drowsiness. Moreover, if taken with other medications these ingredients may cause serious side effects.
Taking into consideration the latest developments, AttorneyOne.com monitor daily and update the website providing accurate information on all relevant FDA safety alerts. Sean Burke, director of Media Relations at AttorneyOne.com, adds “We are determined to keep an eye on FDA announcements concerning Mayhem and inform the public. For that reason," he continues, "our focus should squarely fall on investigating these safety alerts and getting the word out.”
According to the notification, “Consumers taking Mayhem are urged to immediately consult with their health care provider to safely discontinue use of this product. This risk of withdrawal from corticosteroids should be assessed by a health care professional.” And the notification continues, “Only licensed health care professionals can evaluate patients for the risk, or confirm the existence, of adrenal suppression.”
