Single mail parcel containing appx. 3,200-4,000 tablets of suspected counterfeit Cialis after being screened using the CD3 Counterfeit Detector.
The investigation process takes time, with an experienced FDA investigator processing a package containing a single product in about 20 minutes. This time can increase if a large package contains multiple products, or if the product is labeled in a language other than English. This estimate only includes work conducted by the FDA investigator in the IMF and does not include the amount of time required to detain the suspect package and work through the detention and hearing process leading to a final admissibility determination.
