Good for: Honestly, almost no one: it mixes yohimbe and hormones with a secret formula and a history of hidden-drug alerts.

Skip it if: You take nitrates, antidepressants (MAOIs or tricyclics) or blood-pressure drugs, have heart disease or anxiety, are a tested athlete (DHEA is banned), or have ED you haven't shown a doctor.

Extenze is the gas-station enhancement pill, sold in shops for about two decades and, through our link, on buyextenze.com, a store run by Leading Edge Health (the same company behind VigRX Plus). The brand belongs to Biotab Nutraceuticals, though the brand's own store names CB Distributors as owner. The FAQ still says it "can increase the size of your erect penis in both length and girth", and the formula is "our proprietary secret": no amounts are given.

What is listed is a concern. Yohimbe: NIH says there isn't enough research to show it helps ED, and its active compound has been linked to irregular heartbeat, blood-pressure problems, heart attacks and seizures. DHEA and pregnenolone are hormones; NIH's supplement office says DHEA's safety hasn't been adequately studied and sports bodies ban it. We found no trial of Extenze itself.

The record is the worst in this comparison. In 2011 Biotab recalled Extenze tablets that FDA lists as containing undeclared tadalafil and sildenafil, the drugs in Cialis and Viagra, and in 2018 FDA warned that Extenze Plus and Extenze Nutritional Supplement seized in international mail contained sildenafil. Some of those may have been fakes, which is its own warning about buying it off a shelf or marketplace. Hidden sildenafil is dangerous with nitrate heart drugs; our guide to tainted sexual-enhancement supplements explains why. Biotab also settled a 2010 class action over its penis-enlargement claims with a $6 million fund, without admitting wrongdoing.

A box is $49 ($39 each in sixes), sold under a "limited stock" banner, with a guarantee the same page lists as both 67 and 60 days. Verdict: skip it. No pill makes a penis bigger (see penis-enlargement claims), and if erections are the problem, an FDA-approved drug from a doctor is safer and works: ED treatments that work.

The facts

Cost
On buyextenze.com, where our link goes (Nov 10, 2026): one 30-day box $49, three for $135, six for $234, free US shipping, under a "LIMITED STOCK" banner. Charges show as leadingedgehealth.com or leminternet.com. Extenze is also sold in shops and on extenze-usa.com, which names CB Distributors, Inc. as the brand's owner.[1][2]
What it claims
The buyextenze.com FAQ says Extenze "can increase the size of your erect penis in both length and girth". The formula is "our proprietary secret": the site names yohimbe extract, the hormones DHEA and pregnenolone, L-arginine, horny goat weed, tribulus, maca, zinc and niacin, without amounts.[1]
Evidence
We found no published trial of Extenze. NIH's NCCIH says there is not enough research to show yohimbe helps ED, and links yohimbine to irregular heartbeat, blood-pressure problems, heart attacks and seizures. NIH's Office of Dietary Supplements says DHEA's safety has not been adequately studied; the NCAA and the World Anti-Doping Agency ban it.[3][4]
Billing & refunds
buyextenze.com offers a 67-day "Empty Box Guarantee": return the first two empty boxes and any unopened ones so they arrive within 67 days of delivery, minus shipping and handling, one refund per customer. The same page's FAQ says 60 days, so plan on the shorter one. We saw no autoship.[1]
FDA & FTC actions
FDA lists a 2011 recall by maker Biotab of Extenze tablets with undeclared tadalafil and sildenafil (the drugs in Cialis and Viagra), a 2014 distributor recall of "New" Extenze, and 2018 warnings that Extenze and Extenze Plus found in international mail contained sildenafil (FDA names "various distributors", so these may not be genuine stock). In 2010 Biotab agreed to settle a class action over claims that Extenze enlarges the penis with a $6 million fund plus merchandise, denying wrongdoing. In 2006 the company reportedly paid $300,000 to settle an Orange County district attorney's false-advertising case.[5][6][7][8][9]
