TOPIC: Wonder Pill Capsules by Proper Trade/My Stellar Lifestyle: Recall - Due to the Presence of Undeclared Tadalafil
AUDIENCE: Consumer, Patient, Health Professional, Pharmacy
ISSUE: Proper Trade/My Stellar Lifestyle is recalling Wonder Pill lot 20210912 and lot 31853-501, expiry 09/24. Proper Trade/My Stellar Lifestyle was notified by Amazon that laboratory analysis has found the product to be tainted with tadalafil, an ingredient in FDA approved products for treatment of male erectile dysfunction in the family of drugs known as phosphodiesterase (PDE-5) inhibitors. The presence of tadalafil in Wonder Pill capsules makes this product an unapproved drug for which the safety and efficacy has not been established and therefore, subject to recall.
Consumers with underlying medical issues who take the Wonder Pill with undeclared Tadalafil may experience serious health risks. For example, PDE-5 inhibitors may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs (such as nitroglycerin) lowering blood pressure to dangerous levels that may be life-threatening. Consumers with diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease often take nitrates.
To date, Proper Trade/My Stellar Lifestyle has not received any reports of adverse events related to this recall.
