Coffee laced with Viagra causes bit of a stir
Monday July 06 2009
Malaysian authorities confiscated 900 boxes of coffee laced with Viagra, a newspaper report said yesterday.
Health ministry officials raided a company in Kuala Lumpur that marketed the coffee as an energy booster, 'The New Straits Times' said. The report did not say whether the package labelled Viagra as an ingredient.
The report said the 900 confiscated boxes containing some 9,000 coffee packets were worth more than €16,000. Some of the Viagra-laced coffee had been distributed nationwide, it said.
Viagra is legal in Malaysia, but it requires a prescription.
The drug helps men get an erection, but it can pose a heart hazard.
