Public Notification: "RigiRx Plus" Contains Undeclared Drug Ingredient

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is advising consumers not to purchase or use "RigiRx Plus," a product for sexual enhancement manufactured by Enhance Nutraceutical, and sold on various websites, including www.rigirxplus.com .

FDA laboratory analysis confirmed that "RigiRx Plus" contains aminotadalafil. Aminotadalafil is an analog of tadalafil, an FDA approved prescription drug used to treat Erectile Dysfunction (ED). This drug may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs such as nitroglycerin and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. Men with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol or heart disease often take nitrates.

Consumers should stop using this product immediately and throw it away. Consumers who have experienced any negative side effects should consult a health care professional as soon as possible.

Healthcare professionals and patients are encouraged to report adverse events or side effects related to the use of these products to the FDA's MedWatch Safety Information and Adverse Event Reporting Program:
