A coffee company in Malaysia was raided by authorities yesterday, who seized 9000 sachets of Viagra laced coffee worth over $72,000 ringgit (US$20,000). The coffee mixture was being marketed by the company to have a secret ingredient which "perked up" customers.
The manufacturer managed to avoid detection for a long time by selling their coffee sachets in small quantities through a tight distribution channel. Health officials however caught wind of the product when they discovered it was being sold for quadruple the price of regular coffee. Authorities commented that usually when coffee is being sold at such a premium there is a large chance that it contains the ingredient, sildenafil, which is the key ingredient in Viagra. Sildenafil or Viagra is a controlled substance in Malaysia, and is only allowed to be purchased in pharamacies providing customers present a doctor's prescription. The coffee company in Gombak, Kuala Lumpur marketed their product as being beneficial to men along with providing an energy boost. Authorities do not know how many sachets have already been sold but believe that they have been distributed nationwide. Sildenafil can be dangerous to those with heart problems or high blood pressure. Other side effects include headaches, stomach aches, hearing loss, vision impairment and muscle pain.
