Natural Remedy Store Issues Voluntary Worldwide - Recall of Active Male Due to Presence of Undeclared Tadalafil

March 16, 2020 –

Natural Remedy Store is voluntarily recalling all lots of Active Male, 500mg capsules to the consumer level. FDA analysis has found the product to be tainted with undeclared tadalafil. -Tadalafil is an FDA approved drug indicated for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction. The presence of tadalafil in this product renders it an unapproved drug for which safety and efficacy has not been established and, therefore, subject to recall.

Consumption of a product with undeclared tadalafil may pose a risk to consumers who take prescription medications containing nitrates (such as nitroglycerin). The combination of tadalafil and nitrates may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels which can be life threatening. Consumers with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease often take nitrates and may be the population most likely to be affected. To date, Natural Remedy Store has not received any adverse events related to this recall.

Consumers with questions regarding this recall can contact Natural Remedy Store at (210) 798-5433 from Monday thru Saturday 10:00AM to 6:00PM central time or by e-mail address natremedies@att.net. Consumers should contact their physician or healthcare provider if they have experienced any problems that may be related to taking or using this drug product.
