Recalls
The following recalls have been announced:
• TWC Global of Mountain View, Calif., is recalling 200 boxes of its supplement products sold under the names Axcil and Desirin because the products contain potentially harmful, undeclared online sildenafil citrate. No illnesses have been reported, according to the company. The products, manufactured in the U.S. and sold on the Internet nationwide, are sold as a 15-capsule blister-pack, packaged in a box. The company said in a statement Wednesday that the Food and Drug Administration found samples of the products contained an active ingredient for an FDA-approved drug for erectile dysfunction. The undeclared chemicals pose a threat to consumers because they may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels, the company said. Customers should stop using the products sildenafil citrate 100mg and contact their doctor if they have experienced any problems that may be related to taking this product. Any reactions should be reported to the Food and Drug Administration’s MedWatch adverse event reporting program at http://www.fda.gov/medwatch/report.htm. For more information, consumers can call the company at 650-575-0828. • Bravo! LCC is recalling tubes of frozen cat and dog food, because of a potential bacterial contamination.

The company has received no reports of illness in people or animals. Details: by phone at 866-922-9222; by Web at http://www.bravorawdiet.com |
