Public Notification: Secret Miracle Honey (For Men) contains hidden drug ingredient

[4-25-2022] The Food and Drug Administration is advising consumers not to purchase or use Secret Miracle Honey (For Men), a product promoted and sold for sexual enhancement on various websites, including www.etsy.com, and possibly in some retail stores.

FDA laboratory analysis confirmed that Secret Miracle Honey (For Men) contains sildenafil, the active ingredient in the FDA-approved prescription drug Viagra, used to treat erectile dysfunction. FDA approval of Viagra is restricted to use under the supervision of a licensed health care professional. This undeclared ingredient may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs, such as nitroglycerin, and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. People with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease often take nitrates.

These products are typically promoted for sexual enhancement, weight loss, or body building and are often represented as being “all natural.” FDA is unable to test and identify all products marketed as dietary supplements that have potentially harmful hidden ingredients. Consumers should exercise caution before purchasing any product in the above categories.
