| The United States: Public Notification: Adam’s Secret Extra Strength 1500 contains hidden drug ingredients tadalafil and sildenafil |
| |
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers not to purchase or use Adam’s Secret Extra Strength 1500, a product promoted and sold for sexual enhancement on various websites, and possibly in some retail stores. FDA laboratory analysis confirmed that Adam’s Secret Extra Strength 1500 contains tadalafil and sildenafil, the active ingredients in the FDA-approved prescription drugs Cialis and Viagra, respectively, used to treat erectile dysfunction. FDA approvals of Cialis and Viagra are 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.
