FDA Action Against DMAA Prompts New Lawsuits

According to Nutraingredients USA, the recent set of warning letters sent by the FDA to 10 sports nutrition companies has set off a wave of consumer lawsuits. Evidently every one of the companies in the FDA’s crosshairs has now been hit, as in addition to as-yet-unnamed companies not included in the agency’s crackdown.

The suits named in the article are:

Govinda Hogan and Catherine Giasone vs. USP Labs (filed in February)
Anthony Velasco vs. SEI Pharmaceuticals
Derick Barkum vs. Isatori Global Technologies, Inc
Jason McKenna vs. Nutrex Research, Inc.
Andrew Velasco vs. Gaspari Nutrition, Inc.
John Calvin Anthony Baker vs. Musclemeds Performance Technologies
Herbert Reyes vs. SNI
Jose de la Rosa vs. Exclusive Supplements
Alejandro Reyes vs. Fahrenheit Group
Alexander Urban vs. Muscle Warfare

And guess what? Every one of them was filed by the same lawfirm (Kirtland and Packard, LLP). Why am I not surprised?

Update: the unamed companies mentioned above are Labrada Nutrition (Stim-Force); Vital Pharmaceuticals (Anarchy Covalex), S.A.N. Nutrition Corp (Launch), Dorian Yates Nutrition (Noxpump), Allmax Nutrition (Razor8Blast Powder), BPI Sports (Roxylean and 1.M.R.) and DynaPep Corporation (DynaPep Energy).

Yup… same law firm.

    Yes they were on Dr. Oz But…. Its a scam!

    Order it once and even if you unselect the rebilling every months. You will still be charge and get a second one. By the time you receive it and you call to cancel they already charge you the tird one and they offer no refun. They get you with the order first time 29.99$ they it cost me 97$ times 2… Looks like they are use to answer complaints. Its a scam, pills are not even working. I havent lost anything at all!!!!
