The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) received a notification that Best Supplements Best Prices Company is voluntarily recalling all lots of WAP Sensual Enhancement capsules to the consumer level following the detection of undeclared pharmaceutical ingredients by the U.S Food and Drug Administration.
Laboratory analysis by the US FDA revealed that the product contained undeclared sildenafil, tadalafil, and flibanserin, which were not mentioned on the product label. Such substances may include phosphodiesterase type-5 (PDE-5) inhibitors or related compounds commonly used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction
Sildenafil and tadalafil are ingredients in FDA-approved prescription drugs used to treat erectile dysfunction. These undeclared ingredients may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs, such as nitroglycerin, and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. Consumers with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease often take nitrates.
Flibanserin is the active ingredient in an FDA-approved prescription drug used to treat low sexual desire in women. Flibanserin can cause drowsiness, sedation, dangerously low blood pressure, and fainting, especially when combined with alcohol.
