New ED treatment!

It has taken more than a few days but I promised some information on a company with an innovative new product for the treatment of Erectile Dysfunction (ED).

First of all, let me point out what I have been seeking. An innovative product should have three principal advantages over existing solutions:

• it should be able to be taken by all (including those with heart conditions)

• it should be a cure rather than a temporary fix (i.e. more than 4 hours!)

• it should not have any side-effects (no headaches, palpitations etc)

One could also add that it should be reasonably priced, should not interfere with the sexual act in any way (e.g. when do you pop the Viagra pill?), the treatment is not complicated etc.

One of the major causes of ED is related to vascular problems – the amount of blood (or lack of it) flowing into the penis. Smooth muscle loss, smooth muscle dysfunction and cavernosal fibrosis can cause a failure of the veno-occlusive mechanism leading to the lack of an erection or its maintenance.

I have identified a treatment for ED which is being developed by a small Swiss pharmaceutical company called Inpharma. It is based in Lugano in the southern canton of Ticino (Tessin) and is run by a former high ranking executive of Sandoz.

I believe this treatment could be an exceptional medication for ED for the following reasons:

• it offers a cure rather than a temporary 4 hour or so fix as is the case with Viagra, Cialis, Levitra etc

• it is suitable for patients refractory to PDE5-Is

• it can be taken by patients using NO-donors (i.e. affected by angina pectoris)

• it is suitable patients who suffer PDE5-Is side-effects (headaches, flushing, rhinitis, dyspepsia, nasal congestion, visual side-effects, and sudden hearing loss)

• it is suitable for patients with a need to increase PDE5-Is doses (diabetics, developed resistance)
 
So what is this miracle treatment?

The medication is a gel preparation which represents a new therapeutic treatment approach for patients suffering from vasculogenic Erectile Dysfunction. Specifically it re-establishes the physiological vascular tissue functionality.

This is my first posting on this company and its medication. I am putting together more information and will post again soon. Keep following!
