The Interior Ministry said in a press release on Thursday that the National Police have identified 69 websites were the products were offered for sale in Spain. The items seized in Spain include products for erectile dysfunction from Holland, Portugal and the UK, plus anabolic steroids and hormones which were distributed in gyms.
