New ‘discreet’ Viagra Launched ending Embarrassment Of Blue Pill

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

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

About half of males 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 market in the 1990s after being created by the American pharmaceutical company Pfizer.

It was first developed in the 1980s as a heart illness medication, but trial individuals saw it had an unusual negative effects – regular erections.

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

Viatris has already introduced the Viagra ODF in Canada and marketed it as being ‘thin and discreet’ which might be more effective for many customers.

‘Tablets are not always tolerable to clients and likewise sometimes the size of tablets might put clients off having them,’ Thorrun Govind, pharmacist and health specialist, informed The Telegraph.

She added: ‘Some males might still be finding the concept of having Viagr awkward, but I would hope that men’s health and discussions about sexual health have proceeded given that Viagra was first created.’

Ms Govind thinks this brand-new style is a ‘positive advance’.

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

However, approving a hallmark would not guarantee the ODF might be sold and it would have to be approved by the Medicines & Healthcare items Regulatory Agency first.

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

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

This follows dodgy Viagra was discovered to be Britain’s greatest counterfeit drug after more than ₤ 6.2 countless phony blue tablet were taken by UK regulators in 2023.

More supplies of the erectile dysfunction drug were found than knock-off versions of pain relievers like morphine.

Health officials said online sellers flouting guidelines lagged the fake supplies with the majority of being imported from countries like India without a proper licence.
