What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class I, which indicates a reasonable probability that use of the product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death. The presence of undeclared tadalafil, a prescription drug, in unapproved supplements represents a significant safety hazard.

Plain-English summary

InSo-Independent Contractor for West Coast Nutritionals, LTD is recalling approximately 8,000 blister packs of three male enhancement products: Firminite 805 mg, Libidron 410 mg, and Extra Strength Instant Hot Rod 496 mg. These products were marketed without an approved New Drug Application (NDA) or Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) and were found to contain undeclared tadalafil. Tadalafil is an FDA-approved prescription drug used to treat male erectile dysfunction, which makes these products unapproved new drugs.

The recalled products were distributed nationwide in the United States, as well as in the U.S. Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and numerous international locations including the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and various countries in Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. All lots of the affected products are included in this recall.

Consumers who have purchased these products should stop using them immediately and contact the recalling firm for a refund or further instructions. Because these products contain an undeclared prescription medication, they may pose health risks to individuals who are taking other medications, particularly those for heart conditions or blood pressure.
