NOW Magnesium Citrate Softgel Mislabeling Investigation

NOW Magnesium Citrate Softgel Mislabeling Investigation — Product Liability class action lawsuit

Case Overview

Attorneys are currently investigating whether the NOW Magnesium Citrate Softgels contain the specific amount and type of magnesium that is advertised on the product's label. The core concerns revolve around whether the softgels provide less magnesium than the stated 400 mg, or if they contain a different, unlisted source of magnesium that may be harder for the body to absorb.

The investigation is prompted by the fact that the label's stated blend of compounds does not appear to mathematically align with the advertised 400 mg of magnesium. Attorneys are examining whether the product's claims meet federal labeling requirements, which mandate that supplement labels cannot contain false or misleading information regarding the amount and type of minerals provided.

Who May Qualify

Individuals who purchased NOW Magnesium Citrate Softgels on or before May 31, 2024, in the United States.
