THE Therapeutic Goods Administration has issued a formal warning about "Black Gorilla" tablets (pictured), with a new safety advisory stating the products pose a serious risk to health.
The tablets contain the undeclared prescription substance sildenafil, with TGA investigations showing a number of people in Australia may have bought the product online.
It's been a busy time at the TGA which also tested "XXXL Penis Enlarging Ointment" which was found to contain tadalafil.
Other safety advisories issued yesterday include warnings about "France T253 capsules" which were found to contain sildenafil and chloramphenicol; "Dragon Power Capsules" which contain sildenafil, zopiclone and phenolphthalein; and "Gold Reallas XXX Capsules" which contain sildenafil.
The TGA said it had also tested "Real Skill Male Sexual Stimulant capsules," "Rize N Shine tablets," "100% Healthy Food for Men tablets," "V9 Male Sexual Stimulant tablets" and "MME Maxman IX capsules", all of which were found to contain undeclared sildenafil.
None of the items have been assessed by the TGA for quality, safety and efficacy, the agency said.
