After 11 months in recall limbo, alli is heading back to store shelves.
In March 2014, drug giant GlaxoSmithKline issued a voluntary recall of the popular alli weight-loss pill over concerns about possible package tampering. Nearly a year later, the over-the-counter drug is finally coming back to stores.
Alli (orlistat) had been on sale as an over-the-counter drug in the U.S. since June 2007 when it was recalled last year.
The recall occurred after some alli users claimed to have discovered non-alli pills inside of bottles that had been sealed. This led to concerns of tampering, resulting in GSK working to create a more tamper-resistant container for the drug.
The AP reports that Amazon recently began taking pre-orders for alli in anticipation of its re-release and that the drug officially hit the market again via drugstore.com this month. GSK says alli should be back in most stores by this point.
