FDA Zeroes in on Fraudulent H1N1 Products

The FDA is warning that consumers shouldn't always believe what they read online - especially when it comes to H1N1 products. So far, the agency has been alerted to 143 products that fraudulently claim to diagnose, prevent or cure H1N1.

Consumers can click here to view a list of products that "are or were illegally marketing unapproved, uncleared or unauthorized products in relation to the 2009 H1N1 Flu Virus."

The products listed on the site aren't necessarily ones that the FDA hasn't approved - they're just not approved for uses related to H1N1.
