| The United States: ilum Male Sexual Enhancement Chocolate may be harmful due to hidden drug ingredient |
| |
The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers not to purchase or use ilum Male Sexual Enhancement Chocolate, a product promoted and sold for sexual enhancement on various websites, including ebay.com, and possibly in some retail stores.
FDA laboratory analysis confirmed that ilum Male Sexual Enhancement Chocolate contains tadalafil not listed on the product label.
Tadalafil is the active ingredient in Cialis, an FDA-approved prescription drug, used to treat erectile dysfunction. FDA approval of Cialis is restricted to use under the supervision of a licensed healthcare professional. 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.
Please refer to the following website in FDA for details:
