WILLIAMSTOWN, N.J., Sept. 27, 2013 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Haute Health, LLC is voluntarily recalling all lots of Virilis Pro, PHUK and Prolifta at the retail and consumer level. Virilis Pro, PHUK and Prolifta have been found to contain amounts of the PDE-5 Inhibitor sildenafil, which is an active ingredient in an FDA-approved drug for erectile dysfunction (ED). This issue was brought to our attention as a result of sample-testing conducted by the FDA.
Sildenafil has the potential to interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs such as nitroglycerin and may lower blood pressure to unsafe levels. Consumers with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease often take nitrates. Additionally, sildenafil may cause side effects, such as headaches and flushing. To date, however, there have been no reported adverse events associated with the presence of sildenafil in Virilis Pro, PHUK or Prolifta.
Virilis Pro, PHUK and Prolifta are labeled and intended to be used as dietary supplements for sexual enhancement. Virilis Pro is packaged in a 1 and 2 capsule blister packs and 10 capsule bottles. PHUK is packaged in 1 and 2 capsule blister packs and 4, 12, 24 capsule bottles. Prolifta is packaged in 1 and 2 capsule blister packs and 4, 12, and 24 capsule bottles.
