The Food and Drug Administration is warning consumers that Stiff Nights, a "dietary supplement" used to promote erections, contains an illegal drug and is potentially dangerous.
Following a complaint, the FDA investigated the product and found that it contains sulfoaildenafil, an analog of sildenafil -- the active ingredient in Viagra -- that has not been approved. Sulfoaildenafil may interact with prescription drugs called nitrates, including nitrogylcerin, producing dangerously low blood pressure.
