Dynakor Pharmacal, is marketing a weight-loss supplement called Akavar-20/50. Akavar-20/50 is advertised as a “cure for fat!” and the “Fastest, Easiest Weight Loss Ever.”

Akavar-20/50’s marketing materials state that “Akavar-20/50 literally causes excess fat to be pulled from bulging parts of your body!” and that “Akavar-20/50 is the only weight-loss compound that works automatically. There is absolutely no need to count calories, no need to consciously lower your caloric intake, no need for expensive, pre-measured meals… and no need to give up your favorite foods!”

A potential class-action lawsuit is currently being investigated concerning whether Akavar-20/50’s advertising claims are false, deceptive, or misleading.

A class action lawsuit is currently being investigated into whether advertising claims made about Akavar 20/50 are misleading. Those claims include that Akavar 20/50 works automatically, is “foolproof,” and has “guaranteed success.”

The makers of Akavar 20/50, Dynakor Pharmacal, make these claims without ever offering proof that they are true. Akavar 20/50’s official website attempts to impress potential customers by saying that Akavar 20/50’s effectiveness is “…scientific fact, documented by published medical findings.” However, where a customer could read those findings is never given, so there is no way to verify the accuracy of the statements.

Dynakor also never states why or how Akavar 20/50 works. The website simply claims that the pill “literally causes excess fat to be pulled from bulging parts of your body.” According to the website, Akavar 20/50 restricts caloric intake to below the normal daily caloric consumption, but again there is no mention of how it does so. It also does not say what that normal daily caloric consumption should be, or how much lower the pill makes it.

Akavar 20/50’s website states that the pill makes automatic caloric restriction a reality. In fact, the only way to really restrict calories is to watch what is eaten and pay attention to how many calories are consumed.

Patients considering taking pills to aid with weight loss should consult their physicians, especially if they are on any medications that may interact with the weight loss supplement. Consumers should remember that even herbs have active ingredients that can decrease the effectiveness of other medications. For example, Asian ginseng could potentially decrease the effectiveness of blood-thinning medication.

Furthermore, do not take any pills without first knowing exactly what is in those pills as some of the substances may be harmful, causing increased blood pressure and irregular heart rhythms. Others may not have serious side effects but could cause some problems such as diarrhea.

For consumers wanting to lose weight, the best way to shed pounds is still to eat healthy foods and get regular exercise. There is no magic pill that will decrease caloric intake or pull fat from parts of the body. Unfortunately, claims made by Dynakor are not regulated or evaluated by the FDA, so the company can make outrageous claims about Akavar 20/50.

Despite that, false advertising is still illegal and customers who purchased Akavar 20/50 based on Dynakor’s claims can file a lawsuit to recover their money.

This item has been posted for some time with no follow-up. Is there an Akavar lawsuit or not?

I’m just curious as to what is going on with AKAVAR. I purchased this weight loss product and needless to say, there is no weight loss!! I ordered 3 bottles of it and paid well over $100.00. What can I do about this?
