The United States: Public Notification: Power Tiger-X contains hidden drug ingredient sulfoaildenafil |
|
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers not to purchase or use Power Tiger-X, a product promoted and sold for sexual enhancement on various websites, including www.everestwholesales.com, and in some retail stores.
FDA laboratory analysis confirmed that Power Tiger-X contains sulfoaildenafil. Sulfoaildenafil is structurally similar to sildenafil, the active ingredient in Viagra, an FDA-approved prescription drug for 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.
Please refer to the following website in FDA for details:

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