| Australia: Vigor Tea sachets contain undeclared drug ingredient sulfoaildenafil |
| |
The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has tested Vigor Tea and found that Vigor Tea contains the undeclared derivative substance of sulfoaildenafil, despite the product packaging claims it is herbal. TGA investigations have shown that a number of people in Australia have bought the product online.
Consumers are advised that sulfoaildenafil is an analogue of the prescription-only substance sildenafil and Vigor Tea poses a serious risk to health and should not be taken.
Please refer to the following website in TGA for details:
