Fake Viagra, Made in North Korea - GoFuckYourself.com

SEOUL (Reuters) - Fake Viagra made in North Korea has turned up on the streets of South Korea and New York City(where police have detained a local man for peddling a bogus version of the impotence pill. Police officers in Seoul said Friday they were holding Bu Hyun-shik, 52, after confiscating close to 3,000 fake Viagra pills that they said Bu claimed were made in North Korea.
"The pills are white, round and wrapped in aluminum foil," a police officer said -- very different from the real erectile dysfunction remedy.
Viagra is sold in pharmacies in Seoul at about 15,000 won ($13) a pill, triple Bu's price tag of 5,000 won.
A Seoul pharmacist said the low price should make would-be buyers wary of fake "potentially dangerous" pills.

Are they trying to take over by making all the frustrated women come up to the North?

Anyone caught selling Viagra out there can expect a very stiff sentence.

Nothing new here. Pharmaceutical companies in Asia have been making fake viagra pills pretty much since the release of the real stuff.

Some manufacturers are better than others. The main problem for the manufacturers seems to be with consistently having the same dosage of sildenafil citrate (the active ingredient in viagra) in every pill.

Of course, there's the whole trademark issue here. Had they sold it under a different name, probably no one would have heard about it. Because they sell it under the Viagra name, Pfizer gets on them faster than Oprah on a ham.

The ironic part is that many of the countries manufacturing generic and/or fake viagra doesn't allow the legal sale of the real stuff, yet they allow it to be manufactured for export.
