Plain-English summary

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is recalling HALO-70 MEGA MASS BUILDER capsules. The product is manufactured by Anabolic Science Labs, LLC for Wyked Labs LLC. The recall involves 515 bottles of the 60-count capsule product.

The recall is being conducted because the product contains a synthetic hormone/prohormone ingredient (4-chloro-17a-methyl-androst-1,4-diene-3b,17b-diol), which is a methylated anabolic steroid. The presence of this ingredient makes the product an unapproved new drug, as it was marketed without an approved New Drug Application (NDA) or Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA).

The product was distributed nationwide in the United States and in Singapore. Consumers who have this product should stop using it and contact the recalling firm for instructions on how to return or dispose of the product.
