Plain-English summary

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is recalling Gold Vigra capsules, 50mg, 6-count bottles, manufactured by A&H Focal Inc. The product labeling is in a foreign language. The recall is classified as Class I.

The FDA determined that these products contain sildenafil, a drug approved by the FDA for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. Because the Gold Vigra capsules were marketed without an approved New Drug Application (NDA) or Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA), they are considered unapproved drugs. Consequently, their safety and efficacy have not been established.

The affected products were distributed in New York and New Jersey through six retail stores named "Asian Food Markets." All lots are subject to the recall. Consumers should stop using the product and return it to the place of purchase.
