FDA Alert: Evol Nutrition Associates, Inc./ Red Dawn Issues Voluntary Nationwide Recall of Dietary Supplements Mojo Nights and Mojo Nights for Her Because of Potential Health Risk
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – August 23, 2012 – Kennesaw, GA, Evol Nutrition Associates, Inc./Red Dawn (“Evol Nutrition”) announced today that it is conducting a voluntary nationwide recall of all lots of two dietary supplement products distributed by the company under the names Mojo Nights and Mojo Nights for Her to the consumer level. The products are manufactured by and are products of Mojo Health of Lauderhill, FL. Testing by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) revealed the presence of undeclared tadalafil and sildenafil in Mojo Nights only, but Evol Nutrition is also recalling Mojo Nights for Her as a precautionary measure. Tadalafil and sildenafil are active ingredients of FDA-approved drugs for Erectile Dysfunction (ED), making Mojo Nights an unapproved new drug.
These undeclared active ingredients may interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs (such as nitroglycerin) and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. Consumers with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease often take nitrates. No illnesses have been reported to the company to date in connection with these products.
These two products were distributed nationwide via retail stores and internet sales between July 2011 and July 2012. All lots of the following packages of Mojo Nights and Mojo Nights for Her are involved in this voluntary recall:
