These products are not generally recognized as safe and effective for their claimed uses and lack FDA approval. Furthermore, these products are misbranded under section 502(f)(1) of the Act because they are intended for conditions not amenable to self-diagnosis and lack adequate directions for layperson use.

Additionally, several dietary supplement products were found to be misbranded under section 403 of the Act. Violations included failure to bear nutrition labeling ("Supplement Facts" panel) as required by 21 CFR 101.36, failure to identify the products as "dietary supplement
