The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said the company that makes the dietary supplement has agreed to recall 14 Hydroxycut products.

Dr. Linda Katz of the FDA’s food and nutrition division said the agency has received 23 reports of liver problems, including the death of a 19 year old boy living in the Southwest.  The teenager died in 2007, and the death was reported to the FDA this March.

Other patients experienced symptoms ranging from jaundice to liver failure.  The patients were otherwise healthy and their symptoms began after they started using Hydroxycut, regulators said.
