FDA flags Amazon over sale of harmful sex enhancement goods

The Food and Drug Administration notified Amazon over the sale of sexual enhancement and weight-loss products that had potentially harmful drug ingredients, in a letter addressed to the company’s new boss Andy Jassy.

Amazon said it has removed the products in question, and will continue to work with the agency. The FDA had already warned consumers in December to avoid male enhancement and weight-loss products sold through Amazon, eBay and other retailers, citing hidden dangerous drug ingredients.
