Penis Enlargement Pill Maker Pulls Out of Monrovia

The company that produces ExtenZe "male enhancement" pills has moved out of its Monrovia offices on Huntington Drive.

Biotab Nutraceuticals, an herbal supplement company that has paid millions of dollars in lawsuit settlements for claiming its ExtenZe pill increases the size of a man's penis, left Monrovia a few months ago, city spokeswoman Jennifer McLain said.

Biotab's business license is current through June, McLain said. The company first obtained the license which allows it to ship mail-order products in 2007, she said.

A representative from Biotab could not be reached for comment. The company's single-page website does not list any contact information. The applicants for the business license are listed as Tamara Gibson and Robert Winter, according to McLain.

Biotab has had repeated run-ins with prosecutors in Orange County who have sued the company for falsely marketing ExtenZe pills as penis enlargement pills. The company paid $1.75 million to settle the most recent suit in 2011.

"The company engaged in false and misleading advertising in the marketing and sale of certain dietary supplement products, including ExtenZe, which they falsely claimed without any substantiation would enhance a man’s penis size," the Orange County District Attorney's Office wrote in a news release at the time.
