The Ministry of Health published today (Monday) a warning notice against "Magic Plus" slimming pills and "Black Coffee Diet" powder that contain ecstasy and other prohibited substances.
Last week, a 28-year-old woman was hospitalized at Rambam Hospital after using these two products.
The Ministry of Health warns against the consumption of products that are sold illegally for the purpose of weight loss, and may endanger public health immediately.
From laboratory tests it was found that the pills contained the dangerous illegal drug ecstasy (MDMA, which is used as a stimulant drug), and the active substance sibutramine, which is prohibited for use and marketing due to cardiac side effects and psychotic side effects.

In the product "Black Coffee Diet" sold as a slimming powder, it was found in laboratory tests that the product contained the dangerous illegal drug ecstasy (MDMA), and the active substance sibutramine.

Dr. Roni Berkovich, director of the Department of Enforcement and Supervision at the Ministry of Health, is back and warns against the dangers of buying drugs, including diet pills, other than through the legal marketing channel.
The Ministry of Health stated: "The public is urged to purchase diet pills only in places approved for this, such as pharmacies and pharma chains, and to avoid buying the pills through social networks and unfamiliar websites."
