An herbal supplement sold online is being recalled because it contains the active ingredient used in Viagra.
New Mexico-based Primal Supplements Group LLC is voluntarily recalling certain units of its Primal Herbs “Volume” sexual enhancement product because it contains sildenafil, according to a notice released Wednesday by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Sildenafil is the active ingredient in the prescription drug Viagra, which is used to treat erectile dysfunction. The ingredient was not listed on the product’s label, the FDA said.
Health officials warn the undeclared drug could pose risks for some consumers.

Sildenafil can interact with medications that contain nitrates, such as nitroglycerin, potentially causing dangerously low blood pressure.
People with conditions like heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure or high cholesterol often take nitrate medications and could face higher risks, the agency said.
