Glibenclamide Danger

Written by Stuart Stevens | Thursday, 24 April 2008

According to the official statistics released by the Health Department in Hong Kong 2 men have died and almost 50 have become seriously ill after using unregistered erectile dysfunction medications over the previous six month period. The men who varied in age between 44 and 86 were all admitted to hospital and some of them are still there now.

The medications that they took contained a compound called glibenclamide as well as illegal versions of the erectile dysfunction medication sildenafil which is found in Viagra. This glibenclamide compound is sometimes used by diabetics to lower blood sugar but is very harmful if the wrong people use it. As the evidence shows it can be life threatening if it is administered incorrectly.

These official statistics on injuries caused by fake erectile dysfunction medication are just the tip of the iceberg as Ukmedix News has learned that the majority of people who become sick or who die from using these dangerous compounds either don’t report the use of these medications for fear of embarrassment or their loved ones think they just passed away from a heart attack. In some cases doctors cover up the evidence of the use of fake erectile dysfunction medication so as not to cause more distress to children and families.

We cannot stress enough the importance of staying away from any erectile dysfunction medication which is not prescribed by a doctor. The only impotence medications that have been clinically tested in controlled environments in thousands of cases are Viagra, Cialis and Levitra and using anything else means you are playing a lottery with your health.

The Food & Drug Administration of America used the expression “Russian roulette” to describe what men were doing when they use fake erectile dysfunction medication.
