The United States: Public Notification: Rhino Big Horn 3000 contains hidden drug ingredients desmethyl carbodenafil and sildenafil |
|
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers not to purchase or use Rhino Big Horn 3000, a product promoted and sold for sexual enhancement on various websites and in some retail stores.
FDA laboratory analysis confirmed that Rhino Big Horn 3000 contains desmethyl carbodenafil and sildenafil. Desmethyl carbodenafil is structurally similar to sildenafil, the active ingredient in Viagra, an FDA-approved prescription drug for erectile dysfunction (ED). These undeclared ingredients 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.
Please refer to the following website in FDA for details:

In Hong Kong, the above product is not a registered pharmaceutical product.
