How do men act when they want to have sex with a woman they like? Of course, they fix a dinner at a restaurant, a nice talk and a few laughs, a glass of wine or a drink of something stronger. This is often followed by an invitation for a cup of coffee and often a pill of Viagra (or other ED drug) taken furtively. Now let’s imagine that instead of swallowing a pill one would stick a plaster on one’s forearm or lower abdomen. Is it weird? Not at all! The plaster as a medication form is well-known to provide good results and a range of advantages we will discuss here.
Medical plaster: what is it?
Plasters have already been widely used for different purposes in the pharmaceutical industry. Scopolamine plaster is applied to treat sea sickness, testosterone plaster is used in patients who need a hormone correction, estradiol plaster is used for the birth control, lidocaine patch - for local anaesthesia. The advantages of plasters are proved by a vast number of customers:
- The plaster is comfortable to use,
- There is no bad taste,
- It is characterized by high effectiveness, bioavailability of the active ingredient and rare side effects.
One can agree that the mentioned advantages make the plaster very effective and popular medication. That is why scientists and pharmacologists have been trying to create a plaster form of ED treatment drugs and Viagra in particular.
How Viagra Plaster works
The action of transdermal plasters is based upon their ability to release the active ingredient and fill the patient’s body through the recipient’s skin. Transdermal plasters look like common medical plasters that are used for wounds and cuts. They are applied to the skin; the active ingredient penetrates into the blood flow through the upper layers of epidermis. Moreover, the controllability of the active substance is one of the major advantages of transdermal plasters (learn more on wiki) over the other medical forms such as injection, oral or external forms. However not all the medications can be manufactured in plaster forms. The most suitable substances are those with the molecule size fitting to penetrate through the skin.
Developers of the Viagra plaster promise that the plaster will start acting in 30-60 minutes because of the high piercing power of sildenafil nano-particles. The duration of Viagra plaster is declared to be more than 10 hours due to the controllability of the active ingredient release.
No side effects at all?
To create a sample of plaster with Viagra, scientists had to work really hard. As a matter of fact, to clear the ‘hurdle’ of the human skin sildenafil, the active ingredient of Viagra, had to take shape of the smallest nano-particles. It is great that the scientists have managed to solve this problem. Moreover, they have gone even to greater length by covering the sildenafil molecules with the extremely thin layer of the lipid film. This film helps molecules reach the blood flow much quicker and easier. So, the sample of Viagra plaster has been created! Why is it so important that this sample has already been available? The matter is that any transdermal plaster is characterized by the high sterility as far as any side effect is concerned. It means that men will soon be able to forget about such common side effects of Viagra as headaches, blood pressure problems, flushes, digestion disorders and so on.
Weak points of Viagra plaster
Of course, Viagra plaster has certain weak points and a low availability of the given medical form is one of them. The reasons lie in the strict requirements to the molecule size and incorrect usage of the plaster by customers. So, some patients do not understand that the plaster require direct contact with the skin. They stick the new one above the currently used plaster. In case of transdermal patches with narcotic analgesics, for example, there is a high risk of overdosing and as a result, respiratory failure that may have a lethal outcome. Another possible misusage of the plaster is oral application when addicted people try to swallow narcotic plasters to get the drug dosage.
Viagra plaster: Market introduction
We have to admit that it will take certain, even long, time to have Viagra plaster available at the pharmaceutical market (go to the main page of Canadian Pharmacy www.canadahealthcaremall.com and choose best offer on other Viagra poducts). The medication has successfully passed the stage of pre-clinical trial with laboratory rats being the ‘volunteers’. So, that is the time for the plaster to be tested on people. As for the laboratory rats, the expectations of the plaster developers have been proved: bioavailability of sildenafil is much higher when it is received through skin than when it is received orally. Another important point: nearly none of the common side effects occured. Rats love it!
To sum it up, we should say that it is not tomorrow that we will be able to easily buy Viagra plaster in drugstores. Nevertheless, as soon as it is available, our customers will be the first who will get the opportunity to try it.
