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