Counterfeit
Viagra
Counterfeit Viagra is potentially dangerous:
- Counterfeit Viagra may look just like, real Viagra® (sildenafil citrate). The pills and the packaging can be very convincing. However, counterfeit Viagra is different from real Viagra in many ways.
- It may or may not contain sildenafil citrate. Viagra works because it contains sildenafil citrate.
- It is often made in factories that have little or no quality control, which may cause contamination
- It is not approved or regulated by the FDA.
- It is illegal to sell in the United States
Recognize sites selling Counterfeit Viagra:
- Avoid sites which sell Viagra at very cheap costs. Viagra typically costs about $8 to $12 per pill. Any cost that is much lower should raise concern.
- The site uses language like "authentic VIAGRA" or "100% real" to convince you it's real.
- Avoid buying from a pharmacy which is located outside of the United States or does not provide an address. Be careful. A Web site may say it is located in the United States or Canada or has US physicians when this is not true
Buy genuine Viagra from a reputable retail pharmacy or an online
pharmacy that has been certified by the National Association of
Boards of Pharmacy (NABP).
