Supplement makers settle FTC suit

Enfamol Nutraceuticals Inc., maker of Efalex and Efalex Focus, and J&R Research, maker of Pycnogenol, settled a suit with the Federal Trade Commission, agreeing they would no longer advertise these supplements as a treatment for attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The companies were not required to pay fines. FTC officials stated they are particularly concerned about dietary supplements with unproven claims being marketed for children. Reuters, May 11, 2000.
