A once-daily version of the erectile dysfunction treatment Cialis has been approved by European officials.
Yesterday, the drug’s maker Eli Lilly said that receiving approval from the European commission meant that Cialis was the first medicine to be developed to treat impotence over a continuous period.
The drug has been developed to be taken all the time, in comparison with Viagra which is usually taken as and when it is needed.
Men who anticipate that they will have intercourse at least twice a week will be eligible to use the drug, which is expected to come into the commercial market in Europe during the second half of this year.
“ED is typically a chronic disease and, for some men, Cialis for once-a-day use will eliminate the need to plan sex within a limited timeframe as they would with other therapies,” said Abbas Hussain, president of European operations for Lilly.
