Revivexxx Extra Strength: Recall - Undeclared Drug Ingredient
AUDIENCE: Consumer
ISSUE: FDA lab analysis of Revivexxx Extra Strength was found to contain undeclared tadalafil. Tadalafil is an FDA-approved drug for the treatment of male Erectile Dysfunction (ED), making Revivexxx Extra Strength an unapproved drug. This poses a threat to consumers because tadalafil may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs such as nitroglycerin and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. Consumers with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease often take nitrates.
BACKGROUND: Revivexxx Extra Strength is packaged in a single dose blister pack containing one oral tablet and bears UPC 8 35470 00207 9. All lots of this product with expiration dates including and prior to August 2013 currently available on the market are being recalled. The product was sold to distributors and retail stores nationwide and via internet sales.
RECOMMENDATION: Consumers should return the product immediately to the place of purchase for a full refund. Consumers should contact their physician if they have experienced any problems that may be related to taking this product.
