The Therapeutics Goods Administration in Australia has found that two over-the-counter “herbal” sex aids contain sildenafil, the active ingredient in Viagra. The discovery was made during a routine inspection and all affected products have now been withdrawn from sale. The manufacturer of the herbal substitutes could not explain how the sildenafil managed to get into its products.
“I am not going to explain in detail, but it was contaminated so we have pulled it off the shelves and it’s all over now,” said a spokesman for Herbal Health International.
Viagra is a prescription only medication for a reason: if it is taken by someone for whom the medication is not appropriate, it could have serious consequences. Always consult with a doctor before you take Viagra, whether this is online or face to face.
