On April 17, 2024, the FDA warned consumers not to purchase or use Ossos-Sans, a supplement promoted to treat osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and other conditions, because it contains undeclared drugs, including diclofenac and methocarbamol.

Diclofenac is a prescription non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that can cause serious cardiovascular events such as heart attack or stroke, as well as bleeding, ulceration, and fatal tears of the stomach and intestines, or liver toxicity. Methocarbamol is a prescription muscle relaxant that can cause dizziness, low blood pressure and sedation. These drugs imay also interact with other medications and significantly increase the risk of adverse events.

Ossos-Sans (see product photo) is labeled as containing glucosamine, chondroitin, vitamin D, magnesium, curcumin, and other ingredients marketed to reduce joint pain or have other joint and bone health benefits. It was sold on various websites, including https://alnaturaleshop.com, and possibly in retail stores.

Consumers and healthcare providers can report any adverse reactions to the FDA’s MedWatch Voluntary Reporting Program.
