What Happened
FDA said in March 2026 that it issued warning letters to four companies and published public notifications covering 24 honey-based products sold for sexual enhancement. According to the agency, laboratory testing found undeclared active ingredients including tadalafil and sildenafil in product samples.
Why It Matters
These products are often marketed as natural performance boosters, but the FDA said the hidden drug ingredients can interact with nitrates and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. This matters beyond one category: it is a clear example of how unlisted pharmaceutical ingredients can appear in products sold as wellness or supplement items online.
What Buyers Should Do
Consumers should avoid honey-based or syrup-style sexual enhancement products that appear on the FDA’s lists and should be skeptical of products making fast, drug-like promises without full transparency. When shopping online, buyers should verify the seller, ingredient panel, and regulatory history before purchase.
