New ‘discreet’ Viagra Launched ending Embarrassment Of Blue Pill

The makers of Viagra are set to release a brand-new ‘discrete’ type of the drug that will replace the renowned – and instantly recognisable – little blue tablet.

The distinct diamond-shaped tablets could quickly be replaced by a pink, rectangular ‘wafer’ that liquifies on the tongue, suggesting it does not need 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 first pertained to the marketplace in the 1990s after being invented by the American pharmaceutical company Pfizer.

It was first established in the 1980s as a heart disease medication, but trial participants noticed it had an unusual side impact – regular erections.

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

Viatris has actually already introduced the Viagra ODF in Canada and it as being ‘thin and discreet’ which might be preferable for numerous customers.

The distinct tablets – which can cause humiliation for some patients – has been transformed and a brand-new dissolvable type may be readily available to Brits in the next five years. Stock image

‘Tablets are not constantly bearable to patients and likewise sometimes the size of tablets might put patients off having them,’ Thorrun Govind, pharmacist and health expert, told The Telegraph.

She included: ‘Some men may still be finding the principle of having Viagr awkward, but I would hope that guys’s health and discussions about sexual health have actually moved on since Viagra was first developed.’

Ms Govind believes this new design is a ‘favorable step forward’.

The brand-new dissolvable medication is believed to likely come to the UK imminently.

Rebecca Anderson-Smith, partner and chartered trade mark attorney at Mewburn Ellis, informed the paper that the trademark application is a ‘good sign’ it will be available within the next five years.

She described trade mark registrations can be cancelled if they are not used for a continuous duration of five years or more after registration. As a result, it appears Viatris intends to introduce the product within the next few years.

However, approving a hallmark would not ensure the ODF might be offered and it would need to be authorized by the Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency first.

It’s expected to cost the like the tablet variation and to be readily available in the exact same dosages.

A total of 4.57 million prescriptions for sildenafil, more commonly known by the brand name Viagra, and other kinds of impotency drugs sold under the brand names Cialis and Levitra, were dispensed by the health service in 2023

This follows dodgy Viagra was found to be Britain’s greatest fake drug after more than ₤ 6.2 million of fake blue tablet were taken by UK regulators in 2023.

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

Health authorities stated online sellers flouting guidelines were behind the counterfeit materials with most being imported from countries like India without a proper licence.

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

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

While all medications carry potential side impacts drugs from undependable sources might either not work or carry extra ingredients or pollutants like heavy metals or other drugs that might be dangerous.
