Could anyone here fill me in on what the original Dexatrim formula consisted of? Any links to the original ingredient labels? I was told that the first formula consisted of Phenylpropanolamine (PPA) and that the second formula consisted of Ephedrine HCL. Then came the Ephedra/PPA ban and Dexatrim apparently became ineffective. I am doing a research paper and would really like to find the exact ingredients and the amounts of each. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi, Jayden! I found this info on Dexatrim under an ad for lawyers:

Dexatrim supplements are marketed as an easy and effective way to burn fat and calories and decrease the appetite to aid in weight loss. Chattem, Inc., the Tennessee based maker of the popular appetite suppressant Dexatrim has been in the news in recent years, due to safety concerns regarding the supplements that the company manufacturers. The original formula previously contained dangerous ingredients, such as Ephedra/Ephedrine. These ingredients caused a variety of serious side effects, including strokes, heart attacks, arrhythmia, seizures, psychosis and death.
Although the formula has been changed and no longer includes ephedra or ephedrine, the various herbal ingredients in the supplements may pose a serious risk to consumers who use the product.
The Dexatrim weight loss products, which are currently on the market, include:
