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.

The original ICool was the only thing that worked for me, and I’ve tried everything. They came out with a new and improved and that didn’t work. I wish the original was still available. It took all of my hot flashes and night sweats away.
It worked for me after just a few days im so sad I can’t get it anymore
I cool really worked for me. I am so sad I can’t find it any more. So mad to stupid Jane Do. I hope those who make false statmentstatements doesn’t get any money back
I agree w/you 100%! It was the only thing that worked for me. I wish they would bring it back!
Yes please bring it back it worked for me ..you have to give it time to work..that was the only thing that helped me

What about me in Florida? I bought that product.
This is upsetting, I too bought this I-Cool at my local CVS. It states to reduce Hot Flashes but its not until you read the fine print on the back is that it is the Black course that is an Herb that must be taken for months before any symptoms are notably changed. I live in Virginia. I want to be apart of this too.
Sullivan, You are already apart of it.
