Plain-English summary

Bee Extremely Amazed LLC is recalling EVOLVE BEE POLLEN Capsules, 250mg, 60-count bottles, nationwide. The product was marketed as a dietary supplement but was found to be tainted with undeclared sibutramine and phenolphthalein.

Sibutramine is an appetite suppressant that was withdrawn from the US market for safety reasons. Phenolphthalein is an ingredient found in over-the-counter laxative products that was withdrawn from the US market due to concerns of carcinogenicity. The presence of these ingredients makes the product an unapproved drug.

Consumers who have purchased EVOLVE BEE POLLEN Capsules should stop using the product and contact the manufacturer for further instructions.
