- Summary: On April 9, 2020, the FDA and FTC issued a Warning Letter to Earthley and Modern Alternative Mama regarding the sale of unapproved and misbranded products claiming to mitigate, prevent, treat, diagnose, or cure COVID-19. The agencies reviewed websites (https://earthley.com, https://modernalternativemama.com) and social media (www.facebook.com/pg/earthley) on April 2 and April 8, 2020.

The FDA determined that the herbal tinctures and remedies offered are unapproved new drugs, violating section 505(a) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 355(a)), and are misbranded drugs under section 502 (21 U.S.C. § 352). The introduction of these products into interstate commerce is prohibited by sections 301(a) and (d) (21 U.S.C. § 331(a) and (d)). The letter emphasizes the public health emergency declared for COVID-19.
