Are your supplements safe?

 pills

Last year, sales of vitamins, minerals and dietary supplements in the convenience store  channel rose 21%. According to industry analysts the upward trend in 2012 doesn't show signs of slowing down.

 

Although most supplements sold at C-stores are safe, unfortunately not all fit that description. Recent investigations have found that  there are crooked distributors offering deceptively labeled products that may actually contain undeclared and illegal active ingredients!

 

Exercise caution when purchasing these 'type' of products. Unsafe supplements put you at legal and financial risk, and may be harmful to your customers! Protect yourself and your customers by following your instincts and always use common sense.

  •  Only deal with reputable wholesalers and distributors that can offer assurance that they monitor the supply chain and the ingredient suppliers for all supplement products.

  • Scrutinize all product labels closely. If the label is vague or incomplete, do not take a risk and  buy or sell the product.
  • Beware of a product promoted on its label or in labeling as a treatment, prevention or cure for a specific disease or condition. Such claims are not approved by the FDA and are illegal.
  • Keep and eye out for red-flag packaging that promises "a quick and effective cure-all" or "totally safe with no side effects". Such wording which cannot be proven or is not approved.
  • Be highly suspicious of supplements suggesting drug-like effects, boasting scarce availability or claiming to be "barely legal."
  • 

For more information or to report a concern related to a supplement, visit the FDA's website (www.fda.gov) or call the

FDA's MedWatch Program

Private Label Credit Card customers are very loyal customers. They buy, on average, almost 4 times per month versus customers using 3rd party credit cards who typically buy less than twice. So retailers get additional volume PLUS there are no card processing fees. Imagine: two extra fills, plus no Retail Service Fees - more volume and more margin! It all adds up to more profit!
