| The United States: LOVION Chocolate with Ginseng for Men may be harmful due to hidden drug ingredients |
| |
The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers not to purchase or use LOVION Chocolate with Ginseng for Men, a product promoted and sold for sexual enhancement on various websites, including lovionusa.com, and possibly in some retail stores.
FDA laboratory analysis confirmed that LOVION Chocolate with Ginseng for Men contains sildenafil and tadalafil not listed on the product label.
Sildenafil and tadalafil are the active ingredients in the FDA-approved prescription drugs Viagra and Cialis, respectively, used to treat erectile dysfunction. FDA approval of Viagra and Cialis is restricted to use under the supervision of a licensed health care professional. These undeclared ingredients 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.

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