New ED pill melts in the mouth
23 Mar 2011
In what could be the answer to the prayers of harried men, a new 'melt-in-the-mouth' pill promises to deliver the Viagra effect without having to look around for the regulation glass of water.
The tablet is available in the UK, works like Viagra fizzing on the tongue and dissolving in seconds which makes for discreet ingestion.
It comes in a subtle thin black pocket-sixed box and manufacturers hope it could revolutionise treatment for men too embarrassed to seek help.
The £4.50-pill – called Levitra orodispersible is available on National Health Service (NHS) and private prescription as also through special services in some high street pharmacies.
Although the pill dissolves quickly, it takes about half an hour to take effect.
In trials on a cohort of 1,000 men the pill was found to be safe and effective.
