Health official step in when ED medicaiton, Levitra, is found in energy drink.<\/figcaption><\/figure>An energy drink, MosKa, was pulled off the shelves in Australia because the beverage contained a prescription drug known to treat erectile dysfunction.<\/p>\n

The banned beverage<\/b><\/p>\n

Promotions for the beverage caught the attention of health officials when it claimed to boost sexual performance. When officials tested the drink, Levitra, a common medication to treat impotence, was found.<\/p>\n

The hazards<\/b><\/p>\n

Levitra, even if diluted in liquid, can cause problems for men with\u00a0 heart medications. Without knowing it, a guy could buy the drink and end up with serious complications.<\/p>\n

MosKa\u2019s makers claimed a third party put the drug in the drink. The company offered an apology in a press release<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are devastated to have found that the overseas OEM supplier for MosKa energy for adults had included an undeclared ingredient, Vardenafil (Levitra), within the natural ingredients. Vardenafil (Levitra) is a prescription only substance.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs such, we have terminated the supplier and in the process of producing the product with our own formulation to ensure no hidden ingredients. All our future products will be tested for compliance with all regulatory requirements.\u201d<\/p>\n

The product was removed from store shelves.<\/p>\n

An energy drink isn’t the answer to your ED. Talk to a doctor to find a real solution.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Australia isn\u2019t the only country dealing with this issue. At the beginning of the year, six sexually enhancing supplements were recalled<\/a> because health officials found Viagra in the \u201call natural\u201d pills. One of the supplements, Sexy Monkey, reached dozens of stores in 12 states before the FDA stepped in. Like the maker\u2019s of MosKa, the maker\u2019s of this supplement recalled the product.<\/p>\n

The FDA is trying to crack down on supplements that claim to enhance your bedroom performance, but supplements don\u2019t have to go through the same rigorous testing as a prescription medication does. That\u2019s why the FDA usually catches the problem after the fact.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re dealing with sexual problems, talking with a doctor is your best course of action.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
