Michigan Gas Stations Busted for Selling Viagra Without a Prescription
First off, am I that clueless that I never knew gas stations sell male-enhancement pills? Secondly, why are people buying shady stuff from a gas station?
The Detroit Free Press reports that 62 Sunoco gas stations around Michigan are being sued for selling Viagra without prescriptions. How does that work when you actually need a prescription from a doctor? Well, they were selling them under the brand "Rhino 8000" which are advertised as "all-natural" male enhancement pills. However, that's not the case after lab results showed that the product contains sildenafil -- the main ingredient in Viagra.
The products are made in China and then sold to the retailers for a buck or two.
Gas stations and other buyers then mark them up 500% and earn "$10,000 a year in profits.
Even the FDA issued a warning about the products back in July. Without doctor supervision, these pills can result in serious health problems such as [dangerous] lowered blood pressure, stroke and possibly death.
Buying a taquito from a gas station is sketchy in itself so why would you buy penis drugs? Bottom line, don't buy these pills.
