New ‘discreet’ Viagra Launched ending Embarrassment Of Blue Pill

The makers of Viagra are set to launch a new ‘discrete’ kind of the drug that will change the renowned – and immediately recognisable – little blue pill.

The distinctive diamond-shaped tablets might quickly be changed by a pink, rectangle-shaped ‘wafer’ that liquifies on the tongue, implying it does not require to be taken with water.

About half of guys over 40 suffer erectile dysfunction in the UK and last year there was a record 4.57 million prescriptions for Viagra on the NHS.

The drug initially came to the market in the 1990s after being invented by the American pharmaceutical business Pfizer.

It was first established in the 1980s as a cardiovascular disease medication, however trial participants discovered it had an unusual adverse effects – frequent erections.

Now, Pfizer spin-off Viatris, which owns the Viagra name and brand, has actually made an application for a hallmark in the UK for the brand-new type of the drug, Viagra ODF.

Viatris has currently launched the Viagra ODF in Canada and marketed it as being ‘thin and discreet’ which may be more suitable for numerous customers.

The unique tablets – which can cause shame for some clients – has actually been reinvented and a new dissolvable type may be readily available to Brits in the next five years. Stock image

‘Tablets are not constantly tolerable to patients and also in some cases the size of tablets may put clients off having them,’ Thorrun Govind, pharmacist and health professional, informed The Telegraph.

She included: ‘Some guys may still be discovering the concept of having Viagr awkward, but I would hope that males’s health and conversations about sexual health have proceeded because Viagra was very first created.’

Ms Govind thinks this new style is a ‘favorable advance’.

The new dissolvable medication is believed to most likely pertained to the UK imminently.

Rebecca Anderson-Smith, partner and chartered trade mark lawyer at Mewburn Ellis, told the newspaper that the hallmark application is a ‘good indicator’ it will be available within the next 5 years.

She explained trade mark registrations can be cancelled if they are not utilized for a constant period of five years or more after registration. As an outcome, it appears Viatris plans to launch the item within the next couple of years.

However, giving a trademark would not ensure the ODF might be offered and it would need to be approved by the Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency initially.

It’s expected to cost the same as the tablet variation and to be offered in the same dosages.

A total of 4.57 million prescriptions for sildenafil, more typically understood by the brand Viagra, and other kinds of impotency drugs offered under the brand name names Cialis and Levitra, were dished out by the health service in 2023

This comes after dodgy Viagra was found to be Britain’s most significant fake drug after more than ₤ 6.2 million of phony blue pill were taken by UK regulators in 2023.

More materials of the erectile dysfunction drug were discovered than knock-off variations of pain relievers like morphine.

Health officials stated online retailers flouting the fake supplies with a lot of being imported from nations like India without a suitable licence.

Data, from UK regulator The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), reveal 2.6 million dosages of sildenafil, the generic name for the medication best called Viagra, were seized last year.

Another half-million dosages of tadalafil, another erectile dysfunction drug offered under the brand Cialis worth ₤ 1.2 million were likewise taken.

While all medications bring potential side results drugs from unreliable sources might either not work or bring extra active ingredients or pollutants like heavy metals or other drugs that could be harmful.
