USVI: Herbal sex pill pulled from shelves

Health authorities in the U.S. Virgin Islands are pulling an herbal impotency pill from convenience store shelves because it contains an ingredient that must be prescribed by a physician.

Eugene Tull of the islands' health department found that the VIM-25 supplement contains tadalafil, an active ingredient for erectile dysfunction in the drug Cialis.

In a Sunday statement, Health Commissioner Julia Sheen is urging residents to throw out the pills, which are purple and have the words "male enhancement" and "herbal supplement" written on its package.
