New ‘discreet’ Viagra Launched ending Embarrassment Of Blue Pill

The makers of Viagra are set to introduce a brand-new ‘discrete’ kind of the drug that will change the renowned – and quickly recognisable – little blue tablet.

The distinctive diamond-shaped tablets could quickly be changed by a pink, rectangle-shaped ‘wafer’ that liquifies on the tongue, meaning 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 came to the marketplace in the 1990s after being invented by the American pharmaceutical company Pfizer.

It was first developed in the 1980s as a cardiovascular disease medication, however trial participants discovered it had an uncommon negative effects – regular erections.

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

Viatris has already launched the Viagra ODF in Canada and advertised it as being ‘thin and discreet’ which might be preferable for many customers.

‘Tablets are not always bearable to patients and also often the size of tablets might put clients off having them,’ Thorrun Govind, pharmacist and health professional, told The Telegraph.

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

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

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

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

She discussed trade mark registrations can be cancelled if they are not used for a constant duration of 5 years or more after registration. As a result, it seems Viatris intends to introduce the item within the next few years.

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

It’s anticipated to cost the very same as the tablet variation and to be readily available in the same doses.

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

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

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

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