Kim Kardashian Receives FDA Warning for Drug Endorsement
Reality star Kim Kardashian flaunted her growing baby bump during a Los Angeles studio stop on Tuesday, the first time Kim has stepped out since posting a naked selfie on Instagram to quiet claims of a fake pregnancy, but it's another of her Insta pix that has landed Kim in a bit of hot water.
Kim received a warning from the FDA after promoting Diclegis, a drug she claimed has helped her deal with morning sickness. In a letter, the FDA said that Kim's Instagram endorsement of the drug "presents efficacy claims… but fails to communicate any risk information associated with its use and it omits material facts."
In her original July post, she wrote on Instagram, "[My doctor] prescribed me #Diclegis, I felt a lot better and most importantly, it's been studied and there was no increased rick to the baby. I'm so excited and happy with my results that I'm partnering with Duchesnay USA to raise awareness about treating morning sickness."
The post has been deleted from Kim's Instagram.
