i-Cool for Menopause False Advertising Class Action Lawsuit Settlement

The manufacturer of the hot flash relief pills i-Cool for Menopause have agreed to offer Class Members a full refund of the product to settle a class action lawsuit that accused the company of false advertising.

Plaintiff Jane Doe alleged that the phrase on i-Cool packaging that states the product is “clinically proven to safely reduce hot flashes by up to 85%” was false or misleading in violation of California’s Consumer Legal Remedies Act and California Unfair Competition Law.

The i-Cool class action lawsuit states that the claim of reducing hot flashes by up to 85 percent is what enticed her and other potential Class Members into buying the tablets.

Under the i-Cool settlement, manufacturer DSM Nutritional Products LLC will not only financially compensate Class Members but will also include a statement on its website offering a “100% Satisfaction Money-Back Guarantee” for future customers of the i-Cool for Menopause product.

The i-Cool class action settlement states that the claim of being “clinically proven to safely reduce hot flashes by up to 85 percent” was removed from the packaging in 2011, and the company agreed it will not be placed on any future packaging.

DSM Nutritional Products denies that the phrase or any other representations are false, misleading or otherwise unlawful but agreed to the i-Cool class action settlement to avoid the cost of further litigation.
