The Official College of Physicians of Lleida has issued a health alert regarding the recall of various products containing sibutramine, a substance not authorized for consumption.

The Official College of Physicians of Lleida (COMLL) has informed about the need to withdraw several products from the market due to their composition. The main reason for this recall is the presence of sibutramine, a substance that is not permitted in these types of products.
Sibutramine was previously used as a weight-loss medication but was withdrawn from the market in many countries due to its adverse side effects, particularly on the cardiovascular system. Its presence in unregulated products poses a risk to consumer health.
The COMLL urges consumers to check the products they have at home and to avoid consuming those that may contain this substance. It is recommended to follow the guidance of health authorities and consult a medical professional with any concerns.
