The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) is issuing a warning to the public about the dangers of purchasing Ziyinzhuangyang tablets. These tablets claim to be a treatment for male erectile dysfunction, but the TGA has discovered that they actually contain an undeclared substance called sildenafil. This discovery is concerning because sildenafil has the potential to interact with other prescription drugs, specifically nitrates, which can lead to dangerously low blood pressure levels.
Individuals who have pre-existing conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease are often prescribed nitrates as part of their treatment plan. Therefore, taking these Ziyinzhuangyang tablets can have serious consequences. The TGA emphasizes that even if sildenafil is taken with other medications, it can still result in harmful side effects. It is important to note that sildenafil is a prescription-only medicine in Australia, meaning it is not safe to be taken without proper medical supervision.
The TGA also wants to remind consumers that the supply of Ziyinzhuangyang tablets containing undisclosed sildenafil is illegal. These tablets can be purchased from overseas websites, but they have not been tested by the TGA for quality, safety, or efficacy. This also means that the place of manufacture is unknown, making it difficult to guarantee the safety of these tablets. If you have these tablets in your possession, it is recommended to take them to your local pharmacy for safe disposal.
If you have taken these tablets and are experiencing any health concerns, it is crucial to contact your doctor immediately. The TGA is working closely with the Australian Border Force to prevent future shipments of Ziyinzhuangyang tablets from entering the country. The safety and well-being of the public is their top priority, and they are taking necessary measures to ensure that these potentially harmful tablets do not reach consumers.
