The short answer
The FDA has published notices on products sold as Royal Honey VIP, Kingdom Honey, Black Horse, Hard Steel, Pink Pussycat and Vital Honey, finding undeclared sildenafil, tadalafil or other drugs. Before buying any honey pack, search its exact name on fda.gov and buy only sealed, batch-printed boxes from a traceable seller.

How to read this page
What this comparison is, and what it isn't
This isn't a ranking. We don't score honey pack brands, and we don't call any of them good or bad. We report what the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has published about products sold under each name, in the FDA's terms, with the date of each notice and a link.
Two things to keep in mind as you read. First, an FDA notice applies to the specific product the agency tested. The same brand name can appear on many different sachets, from many different makers, and the FDA often issues several notices for one name. Second, finding no notice for a product tells you only that no notice was found; it is not a clean bill of health.
And one note on labels: most honey pack brands list herbs or extracts alongside the honey, and none of the products below declared the drugs the FDA found. Our guide to reading a honey pack label explains what an honest ingredient list should show.
The FDA's running roundup is its page on tainted honey-based products with hidden active drug ingredients, which listed more than twenty honey products when we checked it in November 2026.

Brand by brand
What each FDA notice says
Royal Honey VIP
The FDA first flagged Royal Honey VIP on July 17, 2017, after finding it during an examination of international mail shipments; its lab confirmed tadalafil, the active ingredient in Cialis (FDA notice). A second notice dated April 25, 2022 again reports tadalafil in a product sold under that name online and possibly in some retail stores (FDA notice). In both, the FDA advises consumers not to purchase or use the product.
Kingdom Honey
Three notices. The "for Him" and "for Her" versions, both dated July 17, 2017, report tadalafil (for Him, for Her). A third product combining both names, dated April 25, 2022, reports sildenafil, the active ingredient in Viagra (FDA notice).
Black Horse
The FDA's notice dated July 8, 2025 says its lab found sildenafil and tadalafil, not listed on the label, in Black Horse Miracle Honey for Men (FDA notice). That is the Black Horse honey pack notice we could verify directly on fda.gov.
Hard Steel
The notice dated July 5, 2024 reports sildenafil and acetaminophen in a product called Hard Steel, and warns of possible acetaminophen overdose (FDA notice). The notice does not describe the product's form, so we can't confirm it concerns a honey pack. We found no FDA notice specifically for a "Hard Steel honey" as of November 2026.
Pink Pussycat
The FDA's Pink Pussycat page carries three dated entries. The latest, June 5, 2026, covers capsules, liquids, honey and chocolate, and reports sildenafil and tadalafil in the honey (FDA notice). Earlier entries report sildenafil (December 2021) and tadalafil in a chocolate (February 2026).
Vital Honey
First flagged April 25, 2022 for tadalafil. An update dated September 25, 2026 says the FDA continues to advise against buying or using it, and that additional versions sold online also contained tadalafil (FDA notice).
Why so many names
Why the same honey pack brands keep reappearing
Notice how often "Royal", "VIP" and "for Him" show up? Honey pack brands borrow from each other constantly. A successful name gets copied, extended with a new word, or printed on sachets from a different factory. That is why one name can collect several FDA notices years apart, and why the FDA tells you to search the exact product name.
It is also why buyers can't rely on a brand name alone. Two boxes with the same words on the front may share nothing else. The batch number, the expiry and the seller are what separate them.
For the bigger picture on the format, see what a honey pack is; for safety specifics, side effects and the FDA.
What to look for, whatever the brand
A short routine that works for every name on this page and any new one.
- Search the exact product name, word for word, on fda.gov.
- Buy a sealed carton, not a loose sachet from an open tray.
- Check for a printed batch number and expiry date.
- Read the full ingredient list; skip anything vague or unreadable.
- Buy from a seller with an email address and a receipt.
- If you take nitrates or blood-pressure medicine, talk to your doctor before any honey pack.
Questions about honey pack brands
Which honey pack brands have no FDA notice?
We can't give you a clean list. The FDA notes it can't test every product, so the absence of a notice doesn't mean a product was checked. Search each name yourself.
Will you add more honey pack brands?
Yes, when we can verify a notice on fda.gov. If a name has no notice we can find, we say so rather than guess.
Is every Royal Honey VIP box the same product?
No. The name is used by different sellers and makers. FDA notices apply to the products the agency tested.
Is there a Black Horse honey pack notice?
Yes: Black Horse Miracle Honey for Men, dated July 8, 2025, reports undeclared sildenafil and tadalafil (fda.gov).
What do sildenafil and tadalafil have to do with honey?
Nothing, which is the point. They are prescription drug ingredients, and the FDA found them in some honey products without being declared on the label. The FDA warns they can interact with nitrates and lower blood pressure dangerously.
Where can I report a problem with a product?
The FDA's notices point consumers to its MedWatch program for reporting side effects.
Do you sell other honey pack brands?
No. We sell one sealed box of honey and Himalayan shilajit sachets, in four pack sizes on the shop page.
