Chinese aphrodisiacs were named by Australia
According to reportsAn aphrodisiac in China has been warned by Australia!
Australia's top medicines regulator has issued an alert on a series of suspected imported tablets from China, warning consumers that the products contain serious health hazards and have not been tested to Australian standards.
Pills labeled "strong", "bigger, longer, longer, more sperm" have been labeled as an undeclared substance that can lower blood pressure to dangerous levels.
The TGA said this week that both Budweiser Max Tablets and Ingdar King tablets contain the undeclared substance sildenafil, which poses a "serious health risk" and should not be taken.
"Sildenafil may interact with nitrates in some prescription medications and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels," the regulator said. ”
People with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease often take nitrates. ”
Sildenafil taken in combination with other medications may cause serious ***
*Tablets containing undisclosed sildenafil are illegal, and the TGA also warns that the tablets have not been evaluated for quality, safety or efficacy, and that they are not manufactured in Australia**.
The agency advises consumers to stop using these tablets immediately and take the remaining tablets to a pharmacy for safe disposal.
The regulator said it was working with the Australian Border Force to help stop future shipments of Budweiser tablets.
We will notify ABF to seize and destroy all these products intercepted at the border. ”
The NMPA also issued an alert for the drug after it was found that the Li Dadaihua tablets contained the undeclared substance sibutramine.
"Consumers are reminded that sibutramine is a prescription drug in Australia," the TGA said. ”
Sibutramine was withdrawn from the world market in 2010 due to the increased risk of cardiac events and stroke. ”
In addition, Australia has recently banned this product!
This week, Australia became the first country in the world to announce a ban on artificial stone.
Affordable and durable, this material has become a staple for many home kitchen and bathroom renovations.
But from next July, it will be withdrawn from the market.
What is Artificial Stone?
Artificial stone is a material made by mixing crushed stone with a resin binder.
It usually contains about 90% crushed quartz, with the rest consisting of metal and tinted glass.
Caesarstone is one of the most well-known brands, but there are many other **merchants.
Why is artificial stone banned?
The decision to ban it has been years in the making.
Back in 2015, an Australian worker developed silicosis, a long-term fatal lung disease caused by inhalation of silica dust, after working with artificial stone.
This is the first case of reporting related to this material.
Since then, hundreds more cases have been diagnosed, and the ABC revealed yesterday that nearly 700 workers have been compensated for silicosis.
A growing body of evidence of the dangers of silica dust has earned it a chilling nickname: "Asbestos of the 2020s."
Australia** WHS agency Safe Jobs Australia investigated the issue earlier this year and came up with these findings in a report published in October:
Compared to other industries, artificial stone workers suffer from silicosis at a "disproportionate" rate
Most engineered stone workers with silicosis are under the age of 35.
Engineered stone workers face faster disease progression (meaning they become unwell faster) and higher mortality (meaning they are more likely to die) than silicosis patients in other industries
Overall, the report concludes that "the use of all artificial stone should be banned".
On Wednesday, Australia's Workplace Minister listened to the advice of Safe Work and unanimously agreed to implement a national ban.
What is silicosis?What is the relationship between artificial stone and silicosis?
Silicosis is caused by inhalation of silica dust, a fine powder that can be deposited in the lungs.
Victims may not have any symptoms at first, but over time, they may cause shortness of breath, chest pain, coughing, and tiredness.
As the disease progresses, symptoms may become more severe and may lead to premature death.
Working or cutting on artificial stone – especially when using circular saws or grinders – produces this fine silica dust.
Safe Work reports that artificial stone has a much higher risk of silicosis compared to other products.
While many materials contain some degree of crystalline silica, artificial stone is typically found in higher levels, sometimes exceeding 95%.
What are the alternatives to artificial stone?
There are several alternatives, including:
porcelainNatural stone (such as marble, granite, or sandstone).laminatetilesTimber Timber
The choice depends on your budget, which room you want to install it in, and what kind of look you want.
George Fadel, general manager of a joinery company in Melbourne, said ceramic could be a good choice if looking for a durable countertop that looks similar to artificial stone.
However, the engineered stone industry says alternatives can be more expensive, more fragile or more difficult to process.
Some natural stone alternatives also contain silica.
If you already have artificial stone in your home, you don't need to remove it.
The ban only applies to future projects.
However, care is required if you intend to dismantle the current workbench or rework on it.
If it is necessary to remove the engineered stone countertop, experts recommend removing it in its entirety so as not to cut it.
Builders' unions want this material to be removed in the same way as asbestos removal. Artificial stone
