FDA Warns Consumers About Dangerous Ingredients in "Dietary Supplements" Promoted for Sexual Enhancement

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is warning consumers not to purchase or consume Zimaxx, Libidus, Neophase, Nasutra, Vigor-25, Actra-Rx, or 4EVERON. These products are promoted and sold on web sites as "dietary supplements" for treating erectile dysfunction (ED) and enhancing sexual performance, but they are in fact illegal drugs that contain potentially harmful undeclared ingredients. These products have not been approved by FDA, and there is no guarantee of their safety and effectiveness, or of the purity of their ingredients.... for further info...

Hope That Helps,

That may occasionally be, but I don't think they're wrong in this instance.

Click the link to the FDA site to read the full warning and why it was issued.

Full disclosure of ingredients is crucial for consumers to make proper decisions.

The inclusion of undisclosed controlled drugs in a product formatted as a "dietary supplement" robs the consumer of their right to make informed choices & decisions about the products they use and consume. Drugs are NOT supplements, and manufacturers who attempt to pass drugs off as "nutritional supplements" shouldn't be allowed to get away with it. A man shouldn't be required to put his life on the line just to get an erection, and many people turn to these alternatives in an effort to avoid the significant risks associated with drugs.

How would you feel if you discovered there were undisclosed anabolic steroids in the multi-vitamin you gave your 6 yr. old daughter, ...or that the multi-vitamin you took was chock full of estrogen, but that little info was purposely omitted from the label?

Consumers have to have the ability to make informed choices.

"chemicals that are similar or identical to the active ingredients used in several FDA-approved prescription drug products" FDA

People buy products,supplements to mimic those of real prescriptions with half the cost and easy access!
Every predicate bite of food, breathe of air you take has riskswith the millions to billions of chemical occurrences and chemical changes int eh body taking place every minute.
If you take a supplement and expect the results to be as ad rug than you better not be a dumbass and think it has no conscience.
Simple case of Fat Dumbasses Abusing powers to get hand outs and come out with this crap
