Additional official information
Background{"text":"Sildenafil and tadalafil are prescription drugs that should only be used under the supervision of a health care practitioner. Products containing sildenafil or tadalafil or unauthorized substances similar to sildenafil or tadalafil (known as analogs) should never be used by individuals taking any kind of nitrate drug (e.g. nitroglycerine) as it can cause potentially life-threatening low blood pressure. Individuals with heart problems including high blood pressure, a history of heart attack, stroke, abnormal heart beat or chest pain are at higher risk of cardiovascular side-effects if they engage in sexual activity, especially if they use sildenafil or tadalafil to help them achieve an erection. Other possible side-effects of using sildenafil or tadalafil include headache, facial flushing, indigestion, dizziness, abnormal vision and hearing loss. Health Canada has been testing a number of seized products that were being sold by Lion King Health Enterprises, Richmond, B.C. and will continue to provide updates to Canadians as warranted. Canadians can monitor the table below for additions to the list of products containing hidden ingredients that may pose a serious risk to their health."}
