FITOTERAPIA USA, INC is recalling approximately 9,000 bottles of Mero Macho Artificially Flavored Passion Fruit Vitamin C Liquid Supplement (2.04 fl oz) because it was found to contain tadalafil. Tadalafil is an active ingredient in FDA-approved prescription drugs for erectile dysfunction and is not listed on the product label. This product was distributed in Florida, Pennsylvania, New York, and Canada. Consumers should stop using the product and contact their healthcare provider or pharmacist.
The undeclared tadalafil in this supplement may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs, such as nitroglycerin, and can lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. This poses a significant health risk to consumers with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease who often take nitrates.
