FDA Recall: Silintan Dietary supplement capsules marketed for Unapproved new drug found to contain undeclared meloxicam

Silintan January 09, 2026

Silintan Dietary Supplement Capsules Recall for Undeclared Meloxicam

Urgent consumer alert — January 7 2026: 123Herbals LLC is recalling every lot of Silintan 25-count capsules after U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) testing found undisclosed meloxicam. Meloxicam is a prescription-only non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that can cause life-threatening heart, bleeding, and kidney events when taken without medical supervision.

Why Was Silintan Recalled?

The presence of undeclared meloxicam makes Silintan an unapproved new drug under federal law. Because users are unaware they are ingesting a potent NSAID, they face elevated risks of heart attack, stroke, gastrointestinal bleeding, and acute kidney injury—especially if they also take other NSAIDs, blood thinners, or have pre-existing conditions.

Key Health Risks of Hidden Meloxicam

  • Heart attack, stroke, or blood clots (risk increases above 15 mg/day)
  • Gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcers, or intestinal perforation
  • Acute kidney injury, particularly in older adults or dehydrated users
  • Dangerous drug interactions with anticoagulants or corticosteroids
  • Severe allergic or hypersensitivity reactions

Which Silintan Products Are Affected?

All lot numbers and all expiration dates of Silintan 25-count capsules in blue-labeled plastic bottles are included. The product was sold exclusively through 123Herbals.com and shipped to consumers nationwide.

Immediate Steps for Consumers

  • Stop using Silintan immediately.
  • Consult a healthcare provider if you have experienced chest pain, shortness of breath, black or bloody stools, severe stomach pain, or unexplained swelling.

  • Contact 123Herbals at hello@123herbals.com or 1-626-656-3202 (Mon–Fri, 8 a.m.–5 p.m. PT) for recall assistance.
