MME Naturally Maxman capsules pose a serious risk to your health and should not be taken.

The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has tested MME Naturally Maxman capsules and found that:

  • MMC Naturally Maxman packagingit contains the undeclared prescription substances sildenafil - despite the product label claims that it is 100% Natural & safe and contains no medicines.
  • consumers are advised that sildenafil is a prescription-only substance (which is the active ingredient in Viagra).

The supply of MME Naturally Maxman capsules is illegal.

MME Naturally Maxman capsules have not been assessed by the TGA for quality, safety or efficacy as required under Australian legislation, and the place of manufacture is not approved by the TGA.

TGA investigations have shown that a number of people in Australia have bought the product online.
