Ads for male enhancement supplements are everywhere. Don’t believe us? By all means — turn off your AdBlock software and explore online pornography for, say, ten seconds or so.
Be prepared to be bombarded with spots for “the best sex pills for men” or “the best penis enlargement pills,” typically touting ridiculous claims about growing your penis 12 inches in two minutes or giving you the sexual stamina of a wildebeest.
And they can look tempting. But be warned: there currently aren't any FDA-approved male enhancement pills on the market. Literally none.
But there are other options.
Below, we’ve discussed some of the issues with non-prescription male enhancement pills and supplements, from lack of efficacy data to hidden, potentially harmful ingredients.
We’ve also discussed how you can use FDA-approved medications to treat sex-related issues like erectile dysfunction to achieve more satisfying sex.
Some of the most popular male enhancement pills are marketed as these magic capsules that can cure any sex-related issue. They say they can do things like:
Increase your penis size
Help you last longer in bed
Strengthen your sex drive
Increase sexual satisfaction
Stimulate healthy blood flow
Promote stronger erections
In general, these male sexual enhancement pills are often promoted as the solution to all your sexual worries, whether you’re concerned about your penis size, your erections or your general ability to please your partner.
Seems legit, right?
Not quite.
These penis enhancement pills aren’t held to the same standards as FDA-approved medications, which means that the manufacturers can try to make all sorts of vague claims.
Technically, they’re all considered “dietary supplements.” And most of these dietary supplements claim that natural ingredients like horny goat weed, ginseng or maca root are all that’s needed to boost your sexual desire, have greater orgasms and reverse low libido. But again, this is far from the truth.
Worse yet, investigations have found that some of these products — including the famous Rhino pill brand — contain hidden ingredients that are potentially dangerous.
One thing that’s important to keep in mind about these pills is that, as herbal health supplements and dietary supplements, they aren’t regulated in the same way as over-the-counter or prescription medications.
This means that they don’t need to go through the FDA’s strict approval process, which involves numerous phases of clinical trials. Unlike FDA-approved medications, they aren’t required to be tested for safety or effectiveness.
This, as you can imagine, creates a lot of space for disingenuous business practices and less-than-truthful advertising.
Unscrupulous business practices are so commonplace in the non-prescription male enhancement pill racket that the FDA actually maintains a list of tainted sexual enhancement products with hundreds — literally hundreds — of entries, all for non-prescription male enhancement supplements that contain potentially harmful substances.
The FDA also investigated numerous male enhancement pills available in gas stations, sex stores and online marketplaces and found that some non-prescription male enhancement products contain hidden ingredients.
That’s concerning, sure. But some of those investigations also found that some of these products contain illegal amounts of legitimate pharmaceutical drugs and unlabeled stimulants. It’s one thing to consume a little too much caffeine every once in a while, but it’s another thing entirely to take an unprescribed, underregulated and unknown dose of say, sildenafil or tadalafil.
While that may sound like you’re getting more bang for your buck, remember: a big reason why ED medications are available by prescription only is because dosages should be tailored to your individual needs.
Plus, pharmaceutical-grade medications are required to be made in pharmaceutical-quality laboratories. Let’s just say that "enhancement" pills don’t have nearly the same rigorous and regulated manufacturing quality standards.
