Question on the ephedra ruling

[infiniti1982]

anything

[docmitchell]

What the judge has said is that it has to now go back to the FDA and prove that under 10 mg is harmful. Who knows how long that will take. I don't think people will get to start selling it right away.

Is this 10mg per pill or per bottle?

[Shibby]

per recomended dose.

There was another report stating that any ephedra product with over 10mg alkaloids were still illegal.. I searched Yahoo for it, to no avail..

I just got this email from SuperVita:

"Dear Valued Supervita customers.
There has been a recent federal court ruling over turning the FDA’s decision to ban the sale of ephedra based products. We are now allowed to sell the original Stacker 2 weight loss product. We have a very limited supply with the expiration date of 2/07. This opportunity is exclusive since the company is no longer allowed to produce products with the same strength as the original. The cost we are charging for the original Stacker 2 is $ 59.95 a bottle or three bottles for $174.99.

We anticipate that the demand will be great so if you place an order your credit card will only be charged if your order can be filled and shipped. This will eliminate potential credits. If you are a previous Stacker 2 fan get your supplies while you can because once the product is sold out there will be no more available. Thank you for your patronage. We hope to do future business with you.

VR,
John
Owner: Supervita.com"

"Supplements With Ephedrine Alkaloids

What Does The Future Hold?

This Federal Court decision and order means that Nutraceutical Corp. and Solaray, Inc., (the plaintiffs who filed a lawsuit against the FDA) can legally sell their low-dose ephedra product. It also means that the FDA has to determine what the upper daily intake of ephedrine alkaloids is in dietary supplements that is safe.

In practical terms, because the cost of product liability insurance is very high or coverage is not available to companies making dietary supplements containing ephedrine alkaloids, it will be interesting to see what companies re-enter the marketplace with such product.

Additionally, FDA might be able to appeal this court order and try to reverse the decision. Also note that some states still have laws in place that ban or regulate ephedrine alkaloid containing dietary supplement products."
