FDA finds Viagra and Cialis in honey products being sold across the US

The companies did not list the erectile dysfunction medications, which can become dangerous if mixed with other drugs and substances.

• An FDA lab test found certain honey and honey-based products contain Cialis and Viagra.
• The companies did not list the erectile dysfunction medications, which can become dangerous if mixed with other drugs.
• The companies that received warnings from the FDA include US Royal Honey and MKS Enterprise.

Your honey may contain men's erectile dysfunction medication, according to US regulators.

The Food and Drug Administration issued a warning to four companies after lab testing revealed their honey and honey-based products contain Cialis and Viagra, medications used to treat erectile dysfunction in men.

Cialis and Viagra are prescription medications meant to be taken under doctor supervision. The drugs can become dangerous if mixed with other medications, the FDA said, which can result in dangerously low blood pressure levels. 

The four companies that received warnings are US Royal Honey, MKS Enterprise, Shopaax.com, and 1am USA Incorporated dba Pleasure Products USA. US Royal Honey sells sachets of infused honey that the company claims can boost "vitality and stamina."

The FDA did not list which exact products contained the erectile dysfunction medication, but they include honey, dietary supplements, and unapproved new drugs. 

Some companies claimed the honey and honey-based products that contained Cialis and Viagra could promote sexual enhancement. Consumers purchased these products on websites and online marketplaces, and possibly in retail stores, per the FDA.

The FDA has been cracking down on supplements and other products that contain unlisted ingredients. The agency recently told consumers not to purchase popular arthritis supplements for containing unlisted, and potentially dangerous, drugs.
