In a notice issued Thursday morning, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) notified consumers that some products marketed for energy contain hidden ingredients that may be a significant health risk.

FDA lab analysis showed that six energy products include either sildenafil or tadalafil, the active ingredients in erectile dysfunction treatments Viagra and Cialis, respectively. Both drugs must be used under the supervision of a licensed health care professional and both are approved for distribution by prescription only. (These are 20 early, common and vague signs of cancer.)

The six energy products found to contain undeclared amounts of either sildenafil or tadalafil are:

  • BIG GUYS Male Energy Supplement (sildenafil)
  • Mens Maximum Energy Supplement (sildenafil)
  • Round 2 (tadalafil)
  • Genergy (tadalafil)
  • WeFun (sildenafil)
  • X MAX Triple Shot Energy Honey (tadalafil)

According to the FDA, all these products are promoted and sold at Amazon.com and possibly in some retail stores. WeFun is also available at E Shop Online USA.
