KUALA LUMPUR - Malaysia's health authorities have seized over 20,000 dollars worth of coffee mixed with sildenafil, the main ingredient in erectile dysfunction drug Viagra, a report said Sunday.
"The coffee mixture had been distributed in sachets nationwide," an official was quoted as saying by the New Sunday Times newspaper.
"Officers found 900 boxes containing more than 9,000 sachets of the coffee mixture which retailed for more than 80 ringgit (23 dollars) per box," the officer added without naming the coffee brand in question.
Enforcement officials said the coffee was mixed with sildenafil to "perk up" drinkers beyond the usual stimulation provided by caffeine.
Health authorities recently raided the distribution company located in Gombak, just north of the capital Kuala Lumpur, the report said.
It cited a health ministry official as saying the company used individuals to distribute the product in small quantities to evade detection by enforcement agencies.
"Investigations revealed that the distributor attempted to mislead the public by claiming that the coffee mixture could provide an energy boost, besides being beneficial for men," he added.
Two years ago Malaysia made its largest single drug bust when it seized at least four million dollars-worth of a fake erectile dysfunction treatment labelled "Miagra".
The counterfeit pills, closely resembling the blue pills of the genuine Viagra brand, were destined for Malaysian and Thai markets.
Grande latte over here please!
So if you have trouble getting up in the morning....
If your buzz lasts longer than four hours, consult your physician.
what does a government do with such confiscated coffee?
what does a government do with such confiscated coffee?
Barney Frank would find use for it I am sure.
...gives ‘cuppa Joe’ new meaning...
LOL. Good question. Probably the same place that all those seized fireworks went last night. They were all going off in my neighborhood! Must be a lot of cops living around me.
Viagra causes meat to stick requires Teflon condom.
ROFLMAO I guess they were Just disposing of them!
Wow. That’ll get you up in the morning.
ROTFLMAO - one offsets the other.
Caffeine (coffee) is a vasoconstrictor.
Sildenafil (Vigara) is a vasodialator.
Really - it was initially studied for use in hypertension (high blood pressure) and angina pectoris (a symptom of ischaemic heart disease).
Too funny - thanks for posting!

Which Dark are you refering to?
You have a coffee recipe?
Darksheare is a former gun-bunny. He has a coffee recipe that could be used as a shell primer.
That explains a lot. I wonder if he know about the rumors of Saltpeter's side effects.
No saltpeter here, but it may cause demonic possession of the coffeemaker.
“WARNING - Not to be taken internally!” - Slings and Arrows
In 12 cup drip percolator pot, fill to 6 cup mark with water.
In filter, put 6 heaping scoops of coffee.
Medium roast works best, just make sure it’s a robust blend.
Found a maxwellhouse ‘medium roast’ that was rather anemic.
Put pinch of salt in filter, about as much as it would take to cover the surface of a dime with one even layer.
This keeps the coffee from tasting burned too quickly, it doesn’t age well brewed this way.
Brew, recirculate if need be, usually not.
Add sugar and dairy creamer.
Creamora and coffeemate are not recommended unless you like the heart racing that Ranger Pudding gives.
That, and the nondairy creamer will give you both a headache and a buzz with the coffee.
I usually put about 8 spoons of sugar in this stuff, it ends up being like Russian Kava, thick and sweet with that bitter overtone to it.
Oh, and I am NOT responsible for seeming demonic possession of the coffeepot, or the coffeepot ending up acting as if it has been damaged.
Be sure NOT to add creamora or coffeemate to the brew, unless you LIKE ranger pudding style heart racing.
When I brew that stuff for myself, I recirculate the stuff to brew a second time, but that’s me for my own personal enjoyment, and it may wreck the coffeepot.
Don’t forget the salt, it’s important to the finished brew.
