SAN DIEGO – A judge said today he will rule later on a class action lawsuit that claims the maker of an ephedra-based weight loss pill manipulated data and misled consumers about the product's efficacy and safety.
Superior Court Judge Ronald Styn said he hopes to issue a ruling by May 23.
Brian Molloy, an attorney for defendant Cytodyne Technologies, said in his closing argument of the six-week trial that the plaintiffs presented no evidence that the advertising for Xenadrine RFA-1 was misleading.
Xenadrine RFA-1 is an amphetamine-like herb that produces slight, short- term weight loss.
In court documents filed a year ago, Cytodyne listed published studies as proof that its products are safe in reducing weight.
The plaintiffs allege that clinical studies Cytodyne cited don't substantiate advertising claims regarding the safety or performance- enhancement benefits of the weight-loss pill.
