VigRx Unfair competition and
trademark
infringement by Ray Sahelian, M.D.
Unfair comparison of VigRx pill to Passion Rx
We generally do not review or comment on other products
except when a company mentions one of the products Dr. Sahelian has formulated in a
deceitful way. Hence, when we received an email from a consumer asking why
Passion Rx was mentioned as a product ranking lower than another product called VigRx,
we searched the internet and found that on the
keyword Passion Rx on yahoo and google, a website called Penis Review was using
Passion Rx to steer customers to a product called VigRx by Albion Medical (or
Leading Edge Herbals based out of Greeley, CO). This triggered
us to create this page to set the matter straight regarding details
about VigRx and Albion Medical or Leading Edge Herbals.
Apparently VigRx is now promoting an " improved " version of their
product called VigRx They have added three new ingredients to their existing
VigRx product. These three ingredients are Bioperine, damiana, and tribulus.
WE ASK
THE PEOPLE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PENIS REVIEW WEB SITE TO REMOVE THE PASSION RX
REVIEW. OTHERWISE, LEGAL ACTION WILL BE TAKEN. See
Orexis lawsuit as an
example.
September 2009: it appears that the Passion Rx review has been
removed from the Penis Review web site, but we will search for other sites
associated with Leading Edge Herbals to see if other reviews exist that fall in
the category of unfair competition.
Question received by email
Q. Hi, I was doing a search for
Passion-Rx on yahoo and came across a website
called Penis Review. This website was claiming that VigRx is a
number one pick and had ranked Passion Rx lower. Can you tell me more about
VigRx. Does this natural sexual enhancement pill work? Do you have a VigRx review. I also wanted to
know if there had been any studies regarding the comparison of VigRx and
Passion Rx. How does the website Penis Review know whether VigRx is better than other
sex products? Can you provide a VigRx review?
A. There are several so called sexual product review sites on the internet that
make it appear that they are independent but are actually a front for the
company that sells the top listed product. One such notorious site is Penis
Review. In the case of VigRx, we have not
tested this product ourselves, so we don't have a VigRx review. VigRx sellers claim that their product is number 1 from a list of
dozens of products. Now, how would they know this. Did they hire a group of sex experts
at an academic center and tested dozens of products in thousands of people with a
double blind placebo trial? Of course not. Therefore, just the fact that these
VigRx sellers are making these kinds of claims immediately says a lot about
their integrity, or lack thereof.
In our opinion, another website whose information we
question is Sexual Enhancement Review dot com. As you will notice, their top
pick is VigRx pill, which lead it is the people who make VigRx
who actually run the Sexual Enhancement Review dot com web site or are, in some
way, associated with them. We really don't
understand why VigRx sellers feel the need to put down other products to sell
theirs. You don't see Honda running ads putting down Ford, or vice versa.
VigRx ingredients
Product Name: VigRx - They claim VigRx pill will increase penis size.
Company Name: Albion Medical and Leading Edge Herbals - Apparently they also
sell another product called Vigorelle.
VigRx pill has the following ingredients:
VigRx has horny goat weed also know as epimedium
has cuscuta Seed
has ginkgo biloba
has red ginseng
has saw palmetto
has muira puama, catuaba, an herb from South America, and
hawthorn berry.
This appears to be a proprietary blend since we can't tell by the VigRx website
how many mg of each herb or total there is in Vig Rx.
Claims made by VigRx
The ingredients included in the VigRx pill formula are blended to increase penis
engorgement
No other
product can compare with the results that VigRx pill produces
VigRx increases blood flow to your penis, without increasing your blood
pressure. Plus, the ingredients in VigRX relax your nervous system, which
further adds to penile health.

VigRx Ignites Your Sexual Performance
Bottom LIne on VigRx Review
The sellers of VigRx pill have not done any published studies that we are aware
of to back up
their claim that VigRx pill is any better than the hundreds of other sexual
enhancement products on the market, including Passion Rx. The ingredients in VigRx pill are quite similar
to many other sex enhancement herbal products. We question the integrity of the sellers of VigRx. VigRx does have good ingredients, but so do dozens of other
penis enhancement and libido products on the market. We can't do a VigRx review
since we don't plan to take this sex pill.
Emails about VigRx Pill and Oil
Q. I read the
VigRx webpage where they claim VigRx causes penis enhancement. What is meant by
penis enhancement, does it mean the penis gets bigger? I'll wait for your
response before I get VigRx.
A. Some companies use the term penis enhancement to
mean that the product causes the penis to be as large as it can be when
maximally aroused, and other companies use penis enhancement to mean that the
herbal sex product actually increases the size of the penis. The latter claim is
not allowed by the FDA. Other, more clever companies, use the term penis
enhancement to suggest that the penis is getting bigger, but don't actually come
out and make the claim, thus making a sale yet avoiding getting a letter by the
FDA for false claims. We don't know what the people at VigRx mean, you would
have to ask them before you get VigRx.
Q. What is your
opinion on VigRx Oil. Before I buy VigRx oil, I thought I would ask you guys
since you seem to provide great research.
A. We don't have any experience with VigRx oil, and we
don't plan to try VigRx oil since we don't have much confidence in the marketing
practices of Albion Medical and Leading Edge Herbals.
Q. Where can I
buy VigRx pill for man from a reliable store? Is it a scam? Does VigRx really
work? Do you have VigRx results? Also, what store has cheap VigRx?
A. You can buy VigRx pill from a number of online stores, including
vigrx dot com, we really don't know which are legit and which online discount VigRx
store is a scam. We don't plan to take a VigRx pill to see if it works or not.
You can search the net to find a cheap VigRx store online.
Q. I buy VigRx
penis enlargement pill. Will I get bigger penis for me?
A. We don't think VigRx is being promoted mainly as a penis
enlargement pill, but we could be wrong. We are not aware of any products that
enlarge a penis beyond its maximal anatomical length under ideal stimulation.
Q. i am taking
the Vigrx plus herbal pills and i just bought tribulus terrestris pills, i
understand that the Vigrx plus pills has tribululs as an ingredient, my question
would it be okay to take a tribulus pill with the Vigrx plus pills.
A. As a general rule it is best to learn for a week or two how each
herb or herbal formula works by itself before considering combinations.
Q. I am 33yrs
old and I have taken 5 mg of Norvasc and 50 mg of atenonol since I was 22. Never
had any problems blood pressure usually runs around 128 over 70 or so. I don't
drink or smoke and I am in good health. Just was wanting to try VigRx plus or
some male enhancement.
A. We are not familiar with the use of VigRx and don't know what
interactions it would have with blood pressure medications. In general, though,
many herbs used for sexual enhancement do increase heart rate and some may
increase blood pressure. It is not easy to give simple answers as to which
sexual formula or individual herb would be best to use. If your doctor does
decide for you to try a sex enhancing herb, the dosage should be kept low.
Q. I've been
doing a small research in the internet about pills for male enhancement. what
i've found was a bunch of different medications and each of them claim to be the
best. After making a comparison in reviews i thought about buying the Endowmax
pills. i've never used any kind of enlargement or stimulating medications
before, so i really need an advice of a professional. What concerns me most of
all are the possible side effects. as i understood all the products of this kind
increase the blood flow and thus stimulate the growth of penis (at least as the
web-sites say). but isn't it a bit dangerous? i mean may there be any capillary
ruptures or stretchings? I also read a lot about a product called Vigrx. They're
carrying out a rather aggressive advertising company, that's what i noticed. so
another question would be - which one to chose - Endowmax or Vigrx? i'm not only
interested in penis enlargement possibilities (i'm actually quite sceptical
about the possibilities of pill-enlargement) but most of all in
preventing premature ejaculations. this is the main problem for me -
ejaculations happen too fast, which cannot make neither me nor my girlfriend
happy. I really want to make a right choice. so to make it shorter let's say i
have two major questions: don't
this kind of pills have side-effects? and will it really help me to control the
orgasms better?
A. We have not tried either Endowmax nor VigRx, so we don't know
how well they work or whether they have side effects. You are right to be
skeptical of pills that promise
penis enlargement.
We see no reason to be concerned about capillary ruptures. Many herbal sexual
enhancers do have side effects including rapid heart beat and insomnia. See also
premature
ejaculation information.
Help me to compare
Zenerx, VigRx and Duramale. Which one do you recommend?
I have not seen any research studies with these products so I have
no idea how they compare to each other.
