New ‘discreet’ Viagra Launched ending Embarrassment Of Blue Pill

The makers of Viagra are set to release a new ‘discrete’ form of the drug that will change the iconic – and quickly recognisable – little blue pill.

The unique diamond-shaped tablets could quickly be changed by a pink, rectangular ‘wafer’ that liquifies on the tongue, implying it does not need to be taken with water.

About half of males over 40 suffer erectile dysfunction in the UK and in 2015 there was a record 4.57 million prescriptions for Viagra on the NHS.

The drug initially concerned the market in the 1990s after being developed by the American pharmaceutical business Pfizer.

It was first developed in the 1980s as a heart disease medication, however trial participants discovered it had an unusual side result – frequent erections.

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

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

The distinct tablets – which can trigger embarrassment for some clients – has actually been transformed and a new dissolvable type might be offered to Brits in the next five years. Stock image

‘Tablets are not constantly bearable to patients and likewise in some cases the size of tablets might put clients off having them,’ Thorrun Govind, pharmacist and health specialist, told 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 carried on since Viagra was first formulated.’

Ms Govind thinks this brand-new design is a ‘favorable advance’.

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

Rebecca Anderson-Smith, partner and chartered trade mark attorney at Mewburn Ellis, informed the newspaper that the hallmark application is a ‘good indicator’ it will be offered within the next five years.

She explained trade mark registrations can be cancelled if they are not used for a continuous period of 5 years or more after registration. As an outcome, it appears Viatris plans to introduce the product within the next couple of years.

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

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

An overall of 4.57 million prescriptions for sildenafil, more frequently known by the trademark name Viagra, and other types of impotency drugs sold under the trademark name Cialis and Levitra, were dished out by the health service in 2023

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