At the beginning of March the U.S. government seized over 100 erectile dysfunction pills and thousands of dollars in shirts in Boston, according to federal documents<\/a>. <\/p>\n

On March 4, officials took 36 Sildenafil Fersuaz pills, 5 Sildenafil IF pills, a Sildenafil Revive pill and 127 Tadalafil pills at Boston Logan International Airport. <\/p>\n

All of the pills are used to <\/b>treat men who have erectile dysfunction.<\/p>\n

The pills, officials told MassLive, were taken at the airport because they were intended to be illegally distributed. They were listed as part of a legal notice<\/a> in March. <\/p>\n

\u201cU.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers remain committed to protecting the health and safety of the American public. During a recent enforcement action, CBP officers intercepted counterfeit pharmaceutical products intended for illegal distribution. These unregulated and potentially dangerous substance pose a significant threat to the consumers and undermine legitimate medical supply chains,\u201d CBP spokesperson told MassLive in a statement. \u201cCBP continues to work closely with partner agencies and intellectual property owners to identify and prevent the importation of counterfeit goods and to ensure that those attempting to profit from such illicit activity are held accountable under the law.\u201d<\/p>\n

Anyone who wants to legally claim the pills has until April 27 to file the claim.<\/p>\n

The pills weren\u2019t the only things confiscated at various Boston locations in March. <\/p>\n

There were 77 Amiri T-shirts valued at $10,000 each on March 6. Two Wegovy prescriptions, which are a prescription medication used for chronic weight management in adults with obesity, were taken on March 5. And a $45,000 mower was confiscated on March 6. <\/p>\n

The month before multiple Fear of God Essentials hoodies were taken. This included 72 hoodies worth over $1,000. <\/p>\n

If the property isn\u2019t claimed, it will be declared forfeit to the United States and \u201cdisposed of in accordance with the law.\u201d This can include being auctioned off<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"At the beginning of March the U.S. government seized over 100 erectile dysfunction pills and thousands of dollars…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7405,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4315],"tags":[535,4553,105,4554,4326,4555,4556,4557,4558,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-7404","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-medication","8":"tag-drugs","9":"tag-generic","10":"tag-health","11":"tag-medical","12":"tag-medication","13":"tag-percocet","14":"tag-prescription","15":"tag-studio","16":"tag-tablets","17":"tag-uk","18":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114312810535331069","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7404","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7404"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7404\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7405"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7404"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7404"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7404"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
