A pharmacist in Aukland illegally sold erectile dysfunction drugs herbal medicine has recently been jailed. He was guilty on 47 out of 49 charges.
The drugs were manufactured without approval, and were represented as herbal even though the medications listed Vardenafil and Phentolamine as active ingredients, which aren’t herbal.
The charged man, Fadi Iskander, ran the business separate from a pharmacy he had. The Pharmacy Council in Aukland has suspended his pharmacy practicing certificate.
Iskander violated the Medicines Act in Aukland. “The Medicines Act 1981 sets out the framework for protecting the public from misuse of medicines by limiting prescription medications to supply only on the authority of a health care practitioner.”
