Rock Hard Extreme and Passion Coffee by Drive Total Energy: Recall - Undeclared Drug Ingredient

January 3, 2011

Audience: Consumer

[Posted 01/03/2011]

ISSUE: FDA notified consumers that lab analyses found that Rock Hard Extreme and Passion Coffee products contained Sulfoaildenafil, an analogue of Sildenafil, an FDA-approved drug used in the treatment of male Erectile Dysfunction (ED), making these products unapproved new drugs. The active drug ingredient is not listed on the product label. Use of these products may pose a threat to consumers because the analogue 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. ED is a common problem in men with these conditions, and consumers may seek these types of products to enhance sexual performance.
