| The United States: Public Notification: Tornado contains hidden drug ingredient nortadalafil |
| |
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers not to purchase or use Tornado, a product promoted for sexual enhancement.
FDA laboratory analysis confirmed that Tornado contains nortadalafil. Nortadalafil is structurally similar to tadalafil, the active ingredient in Cialis, 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.
