Tonight We Ride, LLC is recalling all lots of Ultimate Forza Male Supplement capsules after third-party testing identified undeclared sildenafil, tadalafil and dapoxetine. The products were sold at some independently operated GNC franchise locations from 2017 through Oct. 1, 2026; consumers are advised to stop using them and can return products to GNC for a full refund.
Tonight We Ride, LLC is recalling all lots of its Ultimate Forza Male Supplement capsules after third-party testing found undeclared sildenafil, tadalafil and dapoxetine, according to a company announcement posted by the FDA on October 24. The company says the products were distributed through certain independently operated GNC franchise locations, and consumers should stop using them because the undeclared ingredients may pose health risks, including potentially dangerous blood-pressure drops when combined with some medicines.
The recall covers two configurations: Ultimate Forza Multi-Capsule/Box (item 810208; UPC 868592000002), containing ten blue hard-shell capsules, and Ultimate Forza Single Pack (item 810222; UPC 868592000040), containing one capsule. The company says the products were sold through certain independently owned and operated GNC franchise locations in the United States from 2017 through October 1, 2026. They were not sold through GNC corporate stores.
According to the announcement, the recall followed third-party product testing by GNC, which identified sildenafil, tadalafil and dapoxetine that were not declared on the product. Sildenafil and tadalafil are active ingredients in the prescription medicines Viagra and Cialis, respectively, which are used to treat erectile dysfunction. The FDA says their use in prescription drugs is restricted to supervision by a licensed health care professional. The company announcement states the presence of the ingredients in this supplement makes it an unapproved drug product for which safety and efficacy have not been established.
The announcement warns that sildenafil and tadalafil may interact with nitrates in some prescription medicines, including nitroglycerin, and may lower blood pressure to dangerous levels. It notes that people with diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol or heart disease often take nitrates. Dapoxetine is not approved by the FDA, and its safety or efficacy has not been established by the agency, according to the notice. The announcement also cites increased risk of suicidal thinking and behavior in children, adolescents and young adults associated with consumption of dapoxetine.
Risks From Undeclared Drug Ingredients
The recall matters because consumers may have taken prescription drug ingredients without knowing they were in the supplement or being assessed by a health professional for interactions. The warning is especially relevant to people who use nitrate medicines: combining nitrates with sildenafil or tadalafil can lead to a dangerous fall in blood pressure, according to the recall notice.
The ingredients also change the risk profile of a product marketed as a male performance dietary supplement. Buyers may not expect a supplement to contain undeclared active drug ingredients. The FDA-posted announcement says the product’s safety and efficacy have not been established as an approved drug. The company reports that it has received no adverse-event reports or complaints to date, but that statement does not establish that no consumer has experienced an effect.
For people who purchased the product, the immediate practical steps are to stop using it and seek advice from a health care provider if they have concerns or experienced a possible problem. The recall also gives buyers a return route for a full refund.

Where the Recalled Capsules Were Sold
Ultimate Forza was marketed as a male performance supplement and distributed through selected independently operated GNC franchise outlets. The company specifies that the products were not sold through GNC corporate stores, a distinction that may help customers identify whether their purchase could be affected. The distribution period listed in the announcement spans from 2017 to October 1, 2026.
The FDA page identifies this as a company announcement posted as a public service. It says the agency does not endorse the product or the company. The recall is voluntary and applies to all lots of the two listed product configurations. The company says sales were stopped and affected products were quarantined at franchise locations after the testing results.
“The company is voluntarily recalling all lots of Ultimate Forza Male Supplement capsules to the consumer level.”

Extent of Consumer Exposure
The announcement does not state how many packages were distributed or purchased, how many customers may have used the supplement, or the amounts of sildenafil, tadalafil or dapoxetine found in the capsules. It also does not provide the date or detailed findings of the testing beyond saying GNC’s third-party product testing identified the ingredients.
The company reports that no adverse events or complaints have been reported to date, but the notice gives no further information about whether consumers have contacted health providers or regulators outside the company’s reporting channels. The presence of undeclared ingredients is confirmed in the recall announcement; the effects on any particular consumer are not established there.
Returns, Health Concerns and Reports
Consumers should stop using the capsules. The company says unopened or partially used products can be returned to a GNC store for a full refund. Customers should provide a receipt or the phone number or email address linked to the loyalty account used for the purchase so the transaction can be verified.
Questions can be directed to GNC Customer Service at 1-877-462-4700 or GNCRecalls@gnc-hq.com. The company advises anyone who experienced a problem that may be related to using the supplement to contact a physician or other health care provider. Consumers may also report adverse reactions or product-quality problems to the FDA’s MedWatch program online, by mail or by fax.
The recall notice does not give a deadline for returns or say when sales might resume. The stated next steps are consumer discontinuation and returns, while health-related reports can be sent to a provider and the FDA.
