Telledant LLC of Culver City, Calif., receives a warning letter from FDA and the Federal Trade Commission regarding a range of products marketed under the Biogetica brand. Products claiming natural relief from sexually transmitted diseases, such as the "Deliverance from Herpes Kit" and "Chlamydia Venereal Mix Formula," are unapproved drugs under the FDC Act. The firm also lacks competent and reliable scientific evidence to support their claims, the Sept. 28 letter says.
