SINGAPORE: The Singapore Food Agency has advised consumers not to purchase or consume the “Kingu Ginseng Candy” as it has been detected to be adulterated with tadalafil, a potent prescription medicine used to treat erectile dysfunction.
“SFA will not hesitate to take stern enforcement actions against anyone who sells and supplies food products that are found to be adulterated with banned substances or potent ingredients as these would be unsafe food,” the agency said in a statement Friday. It said tadalafil can also pose serious risks to certain individuals, including those with heart-related problems as well as can cause potentially life-threatening low blood pressure in those who are on heart medications, especially those containing nitrates.The sale of unsafe food is not permitted under Section 15 of Singapore’s Sale of Food Act.
