The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced a recall of 'Love Bites' sexual enhancement chocolate products sold nationwide. The recall, initiated on May 22, 2026, affects multiple lots of the product after testing revealed the presence of tadalafil, a prescription drug used to treat erectile dysfunction.
Tadalafil is a PDE5 inhibitor that can interact with nitrates found in some prescription drugs, potentially causing a dangerous drop in blood pressure. The FDA warns that consumers with underlying health conditions, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease, are at particular risk.
The recalled products were distributed through retail stores and online platforms across the United States. The manufacturer, based in California, has urged consumers to stop using the product immediately and return it to the place of purchase for a full refund.
Consumers who have experienced adverse effects after using the product are advised to contact their healthcare provider and report the incident to the FDA's MedWatch program. The FDA continues to investigate the source of the contamination and will provide updates as more information becomes available.
