FDA Announces Recall of Tren Xtreme and Mass Xtreme Following a Guilty Plea by the Drugs’ Manufacturer

California-based sports nutrition company, VMG Global, pleaded guilty in federal court to charges associated with the selling of dietary supplements containing illegal steroids that may pose a number of health risks, including liver failure.

VMG has agreed to pay up to $500,000 in penalties and destroy its inventory of two drugs, Tren Xtreme and Mass Xtreme. The FDA says the massive recall of the two products should serve as a warning to other dietary supplement companies that may be using unapproved and harmful ingredients with the intent to defraud and mislead consumers.

As a result, another sports nutrition company, MuscleMaster.com, has announced a voluntary recall of 17 dietary supplements.

Consumers taking body building supplements that claim to contain steroids or steroid-like substances should stop taking them immediately. Healthcare professionals and consumers are encouraged to report adverse events that may be related to the use of these types of products to the FDA’s MedWatch Program by phone at 1 (800) FDA – 1088.
