Two Twin Cities men have been indicted for
allegedly sending more than 15,000 doses of counterfeit drugs to
customers.

      The indictment filed in federal court Wednesday says 26-year-old
Nicholas David Lundsten of Spring Lake Park, and 29-year-old
Patrick James Barron of Fridley delivered thousands of drugs
labeled as Cialis, Viagra, Levitra and Propetia, when in fact none
of them were authentic.


      The indictment also says the pair imported tens of thousands of
pills purporting to be other drugs.

      They are each charged with one count of introduction into
interstate commerce of misbranded drugs and one count of
importation of non-narcotic controlled substances.

      A phone number for Lundsten was not listed. A message left with
Barron was not immediately returned.
