The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is warning dieters to watch out for a counterfeit and potentially dangerous copy of
Alli, a popular prescription weight loss drug.
Tests by manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline discovered some 60 milligram capsules did not contain the ingredient
orlistat but instead had substituted sibutramine, a drug that could interact harmfully with other medications.
Consumers began reporting suspect
Alli in December. FDA officials believe most of the fake drugs were sold over the Internet, in a 120-count refill kit.
