One Source Nutrition, Inc. issues voluntary recall of Vitality capsules due to presence of undeclared Sildenafil and Tadalafil
One Source Nutrition, Inc. is voluntarily recalling all lots of Vitality capsules, due to the potential presence of sildenafil and tadalafil which are ingredients in FDA approved products for treatment of male erectile dysfunction in the family of drugs known as phosphodiesterase (PDE-5) inhibitors, according to a Department of Defense All Food and Drug Activity message sent Feb. 24.
Consumption of products with undeclared tadalafil may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs (such as nitroglycerin) and may cause a significant drop in blood pressure that may be life threatening. People with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease often take nitrates. Among the adult male population, who are most likely to use this product, adult males who use nitrates for cardiac conditions are most at risk.
The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) has publicized this recall to all its stores, according to Richard Stith, supervisory consumer safety officer for DeCA Headquarters and Support Center at Fort Gregg-Adams, Virginia. Whenever a commissary has recalled or withdrawn products in its inventory, they are immediately removed from store shelves.
The tainted Vitality capsules is marketed as a dietary supplement used as a male enhancement product and is packaged in a single pill. The affected Vitality capsules product does not have lot numbers or expiration dates. The product can be identified by a single pill in an orange and gray package with blue writing.
The affected product was distributed nationwide to retail outlets from wholesale distributor.
