BACKGROUND: Dietary supplements have a long history of causing adverse effects. @entity943 have not been described with Hydroxycut Gummies. OBJECTIVE: To report a case of @entity943 after prolonged use of a popular dietary supplement, Hydroxycut Gummies. CASE REPORT: An 18-year-old female with no significant past medical history presented with life-threatening @entity943 following about 10 days of use of Hydroxycut Gummies, a legal dietary supplement previously unreported to cause this complication. The @entity1 received external cardioversion due to progressive @entity1032 and persistent @entity551 and was initiated on intravenous @entity1818 at an outside hospital. Left ventricular ejection fraction was 45% to 50%, and cardiac MRI showed no definite finding of @entity1188 , @entity2401 , or @entity82 . Beta-blocker therapy was initiated, and there was a progressive reduction in @entity943 burden with an improvement of symptoms over the next few days. Two and a half months after the initial hospitalization, follow-up Holter monitor revealed occasional accelerated idioventricular rhythm events and a significant reduction in, but still occasional, long monomorphic @entity1165 events. None of the ingredients listed in this product have been associated with @entity943 in the literature. One phytochemical potentially in the product is @entity71160 , which could be the cause of the adverse event. However, there was no other identifiable etiology for the @entity1165 , which resolved after the discontinuation of supplement and the addition of beta-blocker therapy. CONCLUSION: Hydroxycut Gummies should be considered a probable cause of this @entity1 's @entity943 given the lack of another etiology and a Naranjo Scale score of 6.
