In the US, these drugs are legally only available via a prescription from a doctor.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Officials fear that the <a style=\"font-weight: bold;\" target=\"_self\" class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/health\/article-14127225\/toxic-supplement-combinations-expert.html\">chocolate could interact with other medications<\/a>, such as the chest pain drug nitroglycerin, brand name Nitrostat, and cause dangerously low blood pressure, which could cause organs to shut down and be fatal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">This could happen because blood vessels are already dilated by these medications, lowering blood pressure, but the ED drugs could cause the vessels to dilate further, and lead blood pressure to hit dangerously low levels.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The chocolates were sold in bright gold and purple packaging, with instructions telling users to halve the chocolate with a partner and take it 30 minutes before a sexual encounter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Nalpac emphasized that it had not manufactured the chocolates, but bought them from a separate supplier and then sold them in its stores.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The company said there had been no illnesses or reactions reported in connection to the recall.<\/p>\n<div class=\"artSplitter mol-img-group\" style=\"\">\n<div class=\"mol-img\">\n<div class=\"image-wrap\">  <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"imageCaption\">Pictured above is DTF Sexual Chocolate, which has been recalled over the presence of drugs only available on prescription<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"artSplitter mol-img-group\" style=\"\">\n<div class=\"mol-img\">\n<div class=\"image-wrap\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"i-493881de8d3b6ada\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2026\/04\/08\/16\/107741761-15715819-Shown_above_is_the_back_of_the_chocolate_Users_are_told_to_split-a-2_1775660454008.jpg\" height=\"490\" width=\"634\" alt=\"Shown above is the back of the chocolate.
