Updated February 2, 2021:
You might recall, among the warnings and alerts recently issued, the FDA warned people to stop using Man Up Now, a product marketed for sexual enhancement, as it contains a variation of a drug ingredient found in Viagra that can lower blood pressure to a dangerous level.
The FDA intends to:
- Send a letter to the dietary supplement industry, stressing its legal obligation to prevent tainted products from reaching the market, and emphasizing the possibility of criminal investigations against those who endanger public health by their involvement in tainted products.
- Implement a new, rapid notification system for the public on the FDA web site to alert the public quickly to tainted products marketed as dietary supplements.
- Put in place a mechanism for industry to alert the FDA about the tainted products and the firms involved.
