WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced a voluntary recall by Veata LLC of lot number 230811 of Endurance Pro Energy Boost capsules. The recall, prompted by findings from Amazon, identified undeclared sildenafil in the product. Sildenafil is an active ingredient used in FDA-approved medications for male erectile dysfunction and belongs to the phosphodiesterase (PDE-5) inhibitors family. This ingredient cannot be included in dietary supplements, making the Endurance Pro capsules unapproved new drugs with unknown safety and efficacy.
The inclusion of undeclared sildenafil poses significant health risks. Sildenafil can interact with nitrates found in certain prescription medications, such as nitroglycerin, which are often used by individuals with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease. This interaction may lead to a severe drop in blood pressure, potentially causing life-threatening conditions. Adult males who use nitrates for cardiac issues are particularly at risk. However, Veata LLC has not reported any adverse events related to this recall so far.
The recalled product is marketed as a dietary supplement for male performance and energy and is distributed in 10-count blisters within an orange and white carton. The product, identified by ASIN B0CLB96VNV and lot number 230811, was distributed nationwide via Amazon.
Veata LLC is actively notifying its distributors and customers through public announcements and Amazon Messaging. The company is arranging for the return of all recalled products. Consumers who possess Endurance Pro capsules from lot number 230811 should cease using the product immediately.
For any questions, consumers can contact John Tran at Veata LLC by phone at 916-619-7926 or via email at info@veatallc.com. Customer service is available Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM PST. Consumers who have experienced any health issues related to the product are advised to seek medical attention.
The FDA emphasizes the critical importance of accurate labeling, especially when it involves potential allergens or active pharmaceutical ingredients. This recall serves as a reminder for consumers to be vigilant about the ingredients in dietary supplements. Adverse reactions or quality problems related to the Endurance Pro Energy Boost capsules should be reported to the FDA’s MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting program.
The proactive measures by Veata LLC and the FDA aim to safeguard public health by ensuring that only safe and accurately labeled products are available for consumer use.
