A nationwide recall has been issued for two chocolate products after they were found to contain undeclared prescription drug ingredients, federal health officials warn.

California-based Gear Isle is voluntarily recalling certain units of its “Gold Lion Aphrodisiac Chocolate” and “ilum Sex Chocolate” after testing revealed the presence of sildenafil and tadalafil — active ingredients commonly used in erectile dysfunction medications, according to a Thursday announcement from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The products were sold online across the U.S. and marketed as dietary supplements.

The FDA warned that the undeclared ingredients could pose serious health risks, particularly for people taking nitrate medications for heart conditions. 

The combination can cause a sudden and potentially “life-threatening” drop in blood pressure, according to the FDA.

“Among the adult male population who are most likely to use these products, adult males who use nitrates for cardiac conditions are most at risk from these products,” the announcement noted.

Consumers are urged to stop using the products immediately and return them for a refund.

Anyone experiencing symptoms should contact a healthcare provider, according to the FDA.

The recall follows a similar action earlier this month, when New Mexico-based Primal Supplements Group LLC voluntarily recalled certain units of its Primal Herbs “Volume” sexual enhancement product after it was also found to contain sildenafil, according to the FDA.

ET Intelligence Group: In a fiscal year when finance sector indices struggled to deliver returns, newly-listed firms from the sector drove record fundraising in the primary market. Together, they raised ₹49,795 crore through initial public offerings (IPOs)-the highest annual tally for the sector in a decade, surpassing the ₹42,283 crore mobilized over the previous six years combined.

Financial services companies accounted for 28% of the ₹1.8 lakh crore raised by 109 mainboard firms in FY26, marking the strongest year ever both in terms of the number of issuances and total proceeds, which increased 9% year-on-year. The total sample covers companies listed between April 2025 and March 2026 across the NSE and BSE main boards.

The year’s two largest IPOs were from the finance sector: Tata Capital (₹15,512 crore) and HDB Financial Services (₹12,500 crore). They, together with ICICI Prudential AMC (₹10,603 crore) and Groww, or Billionbrains Garage Ventures, (₹6,632 crore), accounted for 26% of the total IPO mop-up.

This highlights the sector’s role in sustaining primary market momentum despite weak secondary market sentiment. The BSE Financial Services index slipped over 1% while the Sensex fell nearly 5% during the year, weighed down by concerns over the conflict in West Asia.

Apart from financial services, major sectors that raised IPO money in FY26 include consumer durables (₹17,522.9 crore), capital goods (₹10,740.3 crore), and fast-moving consumer goods (₹9,374.5 crore).

The other big IPOs during FY26 were by LG Electronics, which raised ₹11,607 crore, Lenskart Solutions (₹7,278.8 crore), and Meesho (₹5,421 crore). The top 10 IPOs collected ₹81,063 crore, forming 46% of the total IPO kitty in FY26. In FY25, the top 10 IPOs collected ₹92,680 crore or 57% of the total IPO sum of ₹1.6 lakh crore.
