The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers not to purchase or use Hard Times for Men, a product promoted and sold for sexual enhancement on various websites, including www.blankterrmall.com, and possibly in some retail stores. FDA laboratory analysis confirmed that Hard Times for Men contains sildenafil, the active ingredient in the FDA-approved prescription drug Viagra, used to treat erectile dysfunction. This undeclared ingredient may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs such as nitroglycerin and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. People with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease often take nitrates.
