Australia: Safety advisory: Majestic Slim Perfect capsules contain undeclared prescription substance sildenafil and phenolphthalein
 
The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has tested Majestic Slim Perfect capsules and found that they contain the undeclared prescription substance sildenafil despite the product packaging claims to be Natural Herbal Supplement. It also contains the undeclared substance phenolphthalein which was previously used as an oral laxative, but is no longer available in Australia due to serious safety concerns associated with its long term use. Consumers are advised to stop taking Majestic Slim Perfect capsules and take any remaining capsules to their local pharmacy for safe disposal; and consult their healthcare practitioner if they have any concerns arising from their use of this product.

Please refer to the following website in TGA for details: http://www.tga.gov.au/safety/alerts-medicine-majestic-slim-perfect-130716.htm
