Wazzup Pilipinas!? 




With renewed focus on its role as the nation’s last-mile delivery service provider, the Philippine Postal Corporation (PHLPost) continues to expand its nationwide presence through the opening of new post offices and postal stations across far-flung and remote communities in the country.

The newly opened facilities include the Macrohon Post Office, located at the Municipal Hall in Barangay San Vicente (Poblacion), Macrohon, Southern Leyte; the Matina Davao City Post Office along General Douglas MacArthur Highway in Matina Crossing, Davao City; the Limasawa Island Post Office in Southern Leyte; and the Baco Postal Station in the Municipality of Baco, Oriental Mindoro.

These strategic branch openings form part of PHLPost’s sustained efforts to strengthen its nationwide network and ensure that essential postal and logistics services reach Filipinos wherever they are. By expanding its physical presence not only in growing urban centers but also in geographically isolated communities, PHLPost reinforces its mandate to serve as the country’s only dependable last-mile delivery partner.

PHLPost’s leadership emphasized that the expansion is not simply about increasing the number of facilities, but about improving access to government services and enhancing service reliability at the community level. Each new post office brings core services closer to the public, including mail and parcel delivery, express mail services, Postal ID processing, and other related offerings that support everyday needs, local commerce, and public service continuity.

One of the main thrusts under the leadership of Acting Postmaster General Maximo Sta. Maria III is to honor its commitment to bring government services closer to the people. By strengthening its presence at the grassroots level, the postal service reaffirms its role as a vital public service institution dedicated to bridging the basic yet evolving needs of the Filipino people.

PHLPost is modernizing its operations and strengthening its delivery network while staying true to its mission of connecting people, businesses, and public services. By expanding and improving its services, the Corporation continues to link communities nationwide and support national development.

Ahead of 2026 Valentine’s Day, EcoWaste Coalition Cautions Men from Using Unregistered Sexual Enhancement Products

(Group echoes public health warnings vs. unauthorized sexual performance enhancers)

11 February 2026, Quezon City. Following the government’s public safety warning on the so-called love scams ahead of Valentine’s Day, the EcoWaste Coalition, for its part, alerted consumers, particularly men, against the use of unauthorized sexual enhancement products, which may result in serious health problems and hospitalization.

Often sold by online dealers, sidewalk vendors, and Chinese drug stores, unauthorized products that promise to improve sexual drive and performance may contain restricted substances, which, if taken without a doctor’s advice, may have serious side effects.

Information gathered by the group from authoritative sources such as Health Canada, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the Philippine FDA indicates that unregistered male dietary supplements, male energy pills, male sexual stimulants, and erectile dysfunction (ED) treatments often contain hidden prescription drugs such as sildenafil and tadalafil.

According to Health Canada, sildenafil and tadalafil are prescription drugs used to treat erectile dysfunction. They should be used only under a doctor’s supervision, warning that both drugs “should not be used by individuals taking any kind of nitrate drug (e.g. nitroglycerine) as it can cause potentially life-threatening low blood pressure.”

Health Canada further warns “individuals with heart problems are at increased risk of cardiovascular side effects such as heart attack, stroke, chest pain, high blood pressure and abnormal heartbeat” if these drugs are used without proper doctor’s advice. “Other possible side effects include headache, facial flushing, indigestion, dizziness, abnormal vision, and hearing loss.”

Desmethyl carbodenafil, dithiodesmethyl carbodenafil, and hydroxythiohomosildenafil are unauthorized substances similar to sildenafil, while nortadalafil is similar to tadalafil and may pose similar health risks, according to Health Canada.

“These contaminated products are a type of medication health fraud,” the US FDA stated.

The Philippine FDA has flagged dietary supplements after laboratory analyses found them adulterated with sildenafil or tadalafil in violation of Republic Act No. 9711, or the FDA Act of 2009, and Republic Act No. 10611, or the Food Safety Act of 2013.

Among the products flagged by the FDA for containing sildenafil or tadalafil are specific batches of Drivemax Plus Brand Herbal Dietary Supplement Capsule, El Combate Food Supplement for Men, Manhattan Biological Maxman, Megaman, and Qi Lu Tadalafil Tablets Treatment for Erectile Dysfunction.

For more information about these FDA-flagged products, as well as unauthorized and/or counterfeit sildenafil and tadalafil drugs, please visit the FDA product verification portal at https://verification.fda.gov.ph/ (type or press mic icon to begin search).

As for US FDA-flagged sexual enhancement products, please see: https://www.fda.gov/drugs/medication-health-fraud-notifications/sexual-enhancement-and-energy-product-notifications

The EcoWaste Coalition is promoting consumer and regulatory vigilance to ensure that adulterated and unauthorized health products containing banned or restricted substances are not offered for sale in the market, including on e-commerce and social media platforms.
