Erectile dysfunction medicines seized in Glengormley

8 April 2011

Large amounts of unlicensed medicines have been seized by Department of Health authorities throughout a search of a home in Glengormley.

A guy was spoken with by department officers about illegally importing and consequently providing unlicensed through the web.

The 47-year-old was also questioned about other medication offenses.

He will now be the subject of a report to the Public Prosecution Service.

The search was performed by the department's Medicines Regulatory Group.

Its senior enforcement workplace, Peter Moore, said: "It is essential that we get the message across that unlicensed medications can be unsafe.

"These types of items being sold, typically online, have actually gone through no quality control and there can be no warranty about their safety.

"You just do not understand what you are taking or the conditions these products were made in. More significantly, you do not know the result drugs like this might have on your health."
