Viagra - A Litte Dab’ll Do Yah!
1 01 2008Ok, if you don’t remember the Brylcreem advertising jingle “a little dab’ll do yah”, then I apologize for this post’s title.
Not too long ago I was making fun of Viagra alternatives, specifically, Wrigley’s (makers of Juicy Fruit chewing gum) having been granted a U.S. government patent to develop a gum that contains a dose of the generic chemical in Viagra (Silidenafil citrate).
So, I mentioned a fictional Viagra Nasal Spray. Here’s an excerpt from my post:
“In the near future, (I think Pfizer’s Viagra patent expires in 2011), he’ll be able to just chew a stick of Wrigley’s Juicy Viagra gum and he can have that same rock hard erection in just 30 minutes. Woot!”
“What will be next, a Viagra nasal spray that gives erections in 60 seconds?”-
Shortly thereafter I found out that there is a drug company actually working on a Viagra-like Nasal Spray, duh me.
“NEW YORK (Reuters) - An experimental anti-impotence nasal spray achieved its primary goals in a mid-stage clinical trial,…”
However, this nasal spray will not deliver a dose of Sildenafil citrate, (the active ingredient in Viagra). This new anti impotance, erectile dysfunction nasal spray will be a new drug which was first known as PT-141, and later named Bremelanotide. What makes this male impotance nasal spray even more amazing is that it has shown to not only increase blood flow to a man’s penis (as does Viagra), but Bremelanotide actually increases the man’s desire for sex! Whoa! Do we need that?
But wait, there’s more.
Bremelanotide nasal spray has also been shown to increase a woman’s desire for sex!!!

Now that’s a miracle that we DO need!
Experts are saying Bremelanotide will be the first true aphrodisiac!
But anyways, the point of this post is that today I heard of a topical version of Viagra. Topical means that you just rub it on, like an ointment or cream. Whooohooo! This could be fun!
“NexMed seeks OK for formulation it hopes will revolutionize the treatment of erectile dysfunction!”
This new ointment would be a Viagra-like substance, not Bremelanotide the aphrodisiac and not Sildenafil citrate (the active ingredient in Viagra). The new drug would be a new version of an old cure for erectile dysfunction. A cure not many men were interested in because it had to be injected directly into the penis, OUCH!
The old drug is Alprostadil and it’s being reworked or re-formulated into a cream that can just be rubbed onto the penis.

YeeeeeHaaaw!
Actually, we don’t know what the new rub on erectile dysfunction’s “brand” name will be. That information is being closely guarded while the drug goes through the FDA tests and trials.
