no concern about your health and are only interested in your money

The UK Border Agency is celebrating yet another victory in their battle to prevent the importation of fake erectile dysfunction medication into the United Kingdom. Northampton Crown Court found Victor Cheke guilty of the importation of unlicensed drugs and the possession of counterfeit medicinal products with intent to sell after parcels containing thousands of fake impotence tablets were intercepted at Coventry Airport.

The parcels which came to the UK from China and India were all addressed to his house in Northampton and as a result he was sentenced to one year in prison. In his summing up the Judge Richard Bray explained that importing fake medications was extremely serious because it could lead to dangerous health complications for people who use them and that there were specific reasons why impotence medications required prescriptions.

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) said that the tablets had been tested and found to be counterfeit despite an extremely sophisticated packaging setup which involved every tablet containing the logos and labeling almost identical to the real product and indistinguishable to the normal consumer. 

Mr. Danny Lee-Frost speaking on behalf of the MHRA explained that criminals were increasingly supplying fake medications which looked very similar to the genuine ones and this led to many innocent purchasers believing they had a medicine which had been tested by the UK's health authorities, when in fact they had nothing more than a cheap and potentially dangerous imitation. The criminal organisations which sell fake erectile dysfunction medications have no concern about your health and are only interested in your money.

Mr. Lee-Frost went on to say that consumers of erectile dysfunction medications should protect themselves by only buying medications which came with a prescription and which could be verified as coming from a UK pharmacy.

If you get sick or you die as a result of using a tablet purchased on the internet which came from an illegal factory in China or India there is nothing you can do about it, and the criminals know this!
