Recalled drug’s undeclared elements can cause heart attacks, suicidal thoughts
An over-the-counter dietary supplement has been recalled because the packaging doesn’t let customers know about ingredients that can have life-threatening side effects.
Modern Warrior’s notice about Friday’s recall of Modern Warrior Ready’s 60-count bottles doesn’t appear on its website, but is posted to the FDA site. That notice says Modern Warrior Ready has undeclared tianeptine, 1,4-DMAA and aniracetam.
- “Tianeptine can cause life-threatening events including suicidal ideation or behavior in children, adolescents, and adults aged 25 years and younger. In addition, overdose carries serious and potentially life-threatening risks including confusion, seizures, drowsiness, dry mouth, and shortness of breath, which can be exacerbated by alcohol use. Using tianeptine in combination with monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOl) antidepressants could lead to life-threatening complications including stroke and death.”
- “Use of 1,4-DMAA can elevate blood pressure and could lead to cardiovascular problems, including heart attack, shortness of breath and tightening of the chest.”
- Aniracetam isn’t FDA approved for use in any dietary supplement.
Modern Warrior Ready was sold online from April 2022 through Dec. 8, 2025.
The recall notice just tells customers to stop using the capsules, but Modern Warrior’s website states, “We stand behind our products with our 110% Money Back Guarantee! If you are unhappy with any Modern Warrior product for any reason or your results with it, it can be returned for a FULL REFUND + 10% (minus shipping costs).”
