| The United States: Public Notification: not to purchase "Hard Ten Days" as it contains undeclared Sildenafil |
| |
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers not to purchase or use "Hard Ten Days", a product for sexual enhancement sold on various websites. FDA laboratory analysis confirmed that "Hard Ten Days" contains sildenafil, the active ingredient in Viagra, an FDA approved prescription drug for Erectile Dysfunction (ED). Sildenafil 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. Consumers should stop using this product immediately and throw it away. Consumers who have experienced any negative side effects should consult a health care professional as soon as possible.
Please refer to the following website in FDA for details:
