Ephedra Class Action Lawsuit
Ephedra Class Action Lawsuit Makes Closing Arguments
May 7, 2003
The makers of an ephedra-containing product, Cytodyne Technologies has
been battling an ephedra class action lawsuit, which just made its closing
arguments in court. The ephedra lawsuit alleged that the maker misled
consumers about the effectiveness and safety of the ephedra product.
The lawsuit alleged that clinical studies do not substantiate advertising
claims on the safety or performance-enhancement benefits of the ephedra-containing
product.
The
ephedra product has been linked to a number of deaths, increased blood
pressure, and increased heartbeat. The Cytodyne product, Xenadrine was
the same ephedra pill that was linked to MLB player Steve Bechler’s
death. The San Diego City Attorney’s Office also joined in a separate
Cytodyne Xenadrine ephedra lawsuit to stop the misleading advertising.
