Men suffering from certain heart diseases and ED are given a second chance

2005-09-12T13:26:00.000-07:00

Medicine has stepped into a superior era of evolution after one of its most recently developed clinical trials, as results reveal it. It appears that, finally, after many years of controversy and waiting, men suffering from erectile dysfunction and certain heart conditions not only are allowed to take ED drugs, but these may even improve the quality of their lives.

The study supporting this statement was published in a reputed medical release, The Journal of Sexual Medicine, and conducted by Doctor Graham Jackson in England.
Doctor Jackson is the initiator of a sexual counseling program for men with cardiac problems and erectile dysfunction in his private clinic in England, the first and only medical clinic supporting a program with these particular profile and destination. Doctor Jackson’s scientific study was conducted on 425 male patients with stable coronary disease and erectile dysfunction. The challenge of the trial was to testify that ceasing the oral nitrate therapy commonly prescribed for these patients and replacing it with a beta-blockade or a calcium antagonist therapy may allow the safe use of oral ED drugs in improving the erectile function in these patients. Surprisingly, in more than 85% of the patients included in the study, discontinuing the therapy with nitrates and the administration of Viagra, Cialis or Levitra lead to significant erectile improvement. What counts even more is that none of the patients dealt with adverse cardiac reactions.

The importance of this study is pointed out by the Journal’s Editor-in Chief himself, Irwin Goldstein, MD, stating that this is a first in proving that stable coronary disease patients are allowed to safely use PDE-5 Inhibitors, like Viagra, Cialis or Levitra, and improve the erectile function, as long as they cease the treatment with oral nitrates and opt for a beta-blockade or calcium antagonist therapy. Secondly, on a larger view, we can get a clear picture of how multi-dimensional medicine is and how relevant professional exchange between cardiologists and urologists turned out for this study.

The incidence of angina pectoris in the United States reaches 17,5‰, while 8% of the American adults suffer from one or another form of heart condition. That is approximately 22 million individuals in need for treatment which may include nitrates, beta-blockers or calcium antagonist.

Cialis Raises High Hopes

2005-09-06T12:26:00.000-07:00

The second quarter of 2005 seems to have been unexpectedly profitable for ICOS Corp., as its spokespersons claim it. The loss of the pharmaceutical maker diminished to almost half of the loss registered in the second quarter of 2004, a share reaching 35 cents as we speak.

Numbers are more than eloquent to describe the success of Cialis’ co- marketer. In the second quarter of 2004, ICOS Corp. registered $52 million loss, while 2005 meant loosing only $23 million. Moreover, expenses of Bothell laboratories increased to $40 million in the second quarter of 2005 from $34.7million last year in the same time. In the end, Bothell registered total revenue of $18.1 million, which can be translated into a promise of profitability made by Cialis for the near future.

ED drugs competing for men’s romance

2004-11-05T09:01:00.000-08:00

Viagra is no longer the only answer to erectile dysfunction. Competitors like Cialis tend to become more popular among men who cannot achieve and/or maintain an erection. While Viagra works quicker, Cialis works for a longer period of time of up to 36 hours.
However many men having erectile problems ignore contraindications of the drug. Serious health conditions like blood pressure disorders, heart attacks or prostate cancer, to name but few, could be aggravated if consuming PDE5 Inhibitors, as ED drugs are also known.
Erectile dysfunction has more victims than we imagine. In America only were reported 15 up to 30 million men suffering from impotence. Age is not the only cause, as men in their 30s and 40s seek medical help for sexual failure.
Doctors say men shouldn’t disregard Cialis’ or Viagra’s side effects such as head aches, stuffy nose or blurred vision taking into consideration patients’ state of health and the heavy costs of the pills. Yet sexual activity is vital in a relationship, as medical studies prove it, and, generally, the pleasure is worth the effort.

Cialis could top Viagra sales by 2006

2004-09-06T03:57:00.000-07:00

report in a new pharmaceutical journal says that by early 2006, Cialis - the rival drug developed by Bothell-based ICOS Corp. - could overtake Pfizer Inc.'s Viagra as the most popular erectile dysfunction drug in the United States.
Fritz Krieger, editor of the Journal of Longitudinal Data, makes that prediction in an article for the publication's first issue this month.
"Cialis appears to be the main threat to Viagra," Krieger wrote in his article titled "E.D. Wars."
"Its 36-hour active life," he continued, "and the fact that it does not interact with high-fat foods or alcohol to the extent Viagra does, are both advantages bound to propel the drug to category leadership."

Pfizer chooses new advertising agency for Viagra.

2004-07-02T03:06:00.000-07:00

Pfizer announced on 29 June 2004 that they changed their advertising strategies and advertising firm. Since now US markets campaigns were managed by Cline Davis & Mann in New York. The new agency signed was McCann Erickson Worldwide. McCann Erickson already handles the advertising of Viagra in 30 countries in Asia, Europe and South America. McCann Erickson also handles Bextra, a Pfizer drug for arthritis, for almost a year.
The new Viagra assignment budget is estimated at over $100 million.
Formal agency, Cline David, will keep working on some campaigns aimed at health care professionals, as well as for interactive advertising.

Viagra was the only FDA approved prescription drug since 1998. The new changes in the erectile dysfunction market are created by the two new comers. Cialis and Levitra forced Pfizer to rethink its branding and advertising campaigns.

Cialis, the newest rival in the erectile dysfunction market, had since its debut only one consistent campaign. The Cialis branding campaign started last SuperBall when Lilly Icos presented a campaign featuring side-by-side bath tubs as a branding device. The cost per minute was $2,000,000. Cialis ads were created by Grey Worldwide New York agency part of the Grey Global Group.

The whole campaign is based on the improved results and 36 hours effect. The campaign seems to be effective, in short time Grey Worldwide managed to create a strong brand for Cialis.
"We are so focused on one path, and we think it's the right path," said Matt Beebe, the brand team leader responsible for Cialis in the United States for Lilly Icos in Indianapolis.

More Fake Cialis and Viagra Arrests

2004-06-29T07:57:00.000-07:00

The World Health Organization research show that 10% of all drugs are counterfeit and in many developing countries the percent goes up to 50%.
Arthur J. Katsanos head of U.S.-based Eli Lilly & Co. said that counterfeit drugs are very hard to track, detect and investigate but there are indications that this business is rapidly growing in Korea.

Korea have the tenth largest pharmaceutical market in the world worth over $9 billion. Since 1990 many pharmaceuticals firms from US and Europe had established over 40 joint ventures in Korea. Us and Europe pharmaceuticals companies controls about 60% from all Korean drugs market.

Korean joint ventures mostly manufacture generic drugs. The majority of those generic drugs have expired patents. In 2003 Korea imported pharmaceuticals worth of $1.1 billion and exports accounting for $400 million. The big size of the market for pharmaceutical products has attracted distributors of fake medicines.
Two weeks ago Korean police mounted raids on 123 pharmacies form Seoul and surrounding areas. More then 150 million fake Viagra and Cialis pills were seized. International companies Eli Lilly and Pfizer Inc. requested to the Korean govern and local authority to take action. The counterfeited Cialis and Viagra are very hard to spot, the aspect is similar and medicines that do not work or cause unusual side-effects are rarely ever reported.

In Korea, criminal sanction for violation of trademarks and pharmaceutical affairs law leads to a maximum imprisonment up to seven years and penalty up to 100 million Won.
Administrative sanction for violation of the law includes canceling the pharmacy business license for 6 to 15 months or cancellation depending on repeated crimes or value of the products.

"The penalties have to be much more stringent to deter anyone from dealing with counterfeit drugs. Like narcotics, fake drugs too are life threatening and can cause severe damage to the companies," said Katsanos.

Reports show that over 6 million man used Viagra to treat erectile dysfunction since 1998. Another million men from US had taken Viagra’s competitors Levitra and Cialis but the makers of the drugs have bigger plans for the next years. They are expecting 30 million potential customers that suffers from erectile dysfunction, mostly among the roughly 60 million men over age 40.

Fake Cialis and Viagra in South Korea

2004-06-18T04:33:00.000-07:00

South Korea police arrested Thursday seven pharmacists who bought and sold fake erectile dysfunction drugs under the name of Cialis and Viagra. 113 others pharmacists were booked without physical detentions.
Police also arrested 2 people identified as Choi and Kang. They are suspected of selling over 9,500 Cialis and Viagra fake pills to South Korean pharmacies. The pills are manufactured in Russia and China and distributed to pharmacies in Seoul and Kyeonggi provincial areas.
They are suspected of smuggling the fake Cialis and Viagra pills through peddlers, who make frequent overseas trips, and supplying them to pharmacies or directly selling to customers.

Herbal Cialis, Herbal Viagra, Enzyte - Untested, herbal erectile aids fraught with risk

2004-06-16T13:30:00.000-07:00

After Viagra and Cialis the men health market is bombed with herbal alternatives. If not long ago we seen herbal sex aids buried in the back of men's magazines now you can see ads in full-page print displays, as well as radio commercials and television. Having aggressive and convincing ads that resemble with prescription drugs one herbal enchantment product named Enzyte even sponsors NASCAR drivers.
Internet facilitate the purchase of all sorts of herbal product. Only with a few clicks you can purchase herbal pills and potions. Many doctors are concerned that herbal sex aids may be a gamble with your health and money due to the lack of testing, science and regulation of this products.
Neil Fleshner of Toronto's Princess Margaret Hospital made a research on a herbal sex aid product named PC-Spes. The tests show that in this products there are traces of synthetic drugs that are used to fight cancer. PC-Spes officials affirmed that they do not know how the adulteration occurred.
Another test performed by Neil Fleshner and colleagues on several products purchased from the Internet after searching for “herbal Viagra” reviled that a product contain Viagra and another product contain tracers of Cialis. Products were sold as herbal sex enchanters and they were not label containing Tadalafil – active ingredient in Cialis and Sildenafil – active ingredient in Viagra. Taking this kind of substances that are included in Cialis and Viagra can be toxic and even fatal to men that are taking other drugs that have nitrates.
Neil Fleshner affirmed that the problem of adulterated herbs may be widespread. The processors in Asia may add Cialis and Viagra in this herbs to increase the potency and efficacy.

"I suspect this has been ... a dirty secret in this industry for a long time."

The law in US and in many countries allow companies to sell herbal supplements witch at least in theory contain only herbal products. This products do not require to be tested before putting them on the market. Dr. Ira Sharlip, spokesman for the American Urological Association, say that there are not actual facts that this herbal products are effective.
Sharlip concedes that there can be some herbs that can actually improve men sexual life but with the lack of clinical tests there is difficult to tell witch. There are only a few herbal supplements that were tested properly on humans.

“Herbal Viagra” and “Herbal Cialis” ads have slick sales pitches. Almost all sites contain testimonials of satisfied customers. Even if the testimonials are true the respective companies don't prove that the herbal sex aids contain potency improving ingredients, says Dr. Robert A. Kloner.

Some cases of erectile dysfunction are psychological in origin. The placebo effect can help men that are using herbal sex aids. In clinical trials on Viagra and Cialis there is a notable placebo effect. In clinical trials 25% of men that take sugar placebo pills have improved erections affirmed Dr. Robert A. Kloner. Dr. Robert A. Kloner is director of research at the Heart Institute of Good Samaritan Hospital in Los Angeles.
Erectile dysfunction can be caused, beside psychological in origin problems, by the low flow of blood in arteries. Erectile dysfunction can be a early warning sign for heart disease, especially for men over 40 or 50. research show that 75% of men with chronic coronary artery disease suffer from erectile dysfunction.
Berkeley Premium Nutraceuticals, a Cincinnati company that produce Enzyte was sued by a law firm in March. The firm is accused of duping men into believing the product increases penis size by one to three inches. Berkeley Premium Nutraceuticals is accused that thayr ads have an "unfair, deceptive and fraudulent" message in promoting Enzyte. One of the sales pitch is that Enzyte "helps support firmer, fuller-feeling, better quality erections."

Urologists agree that there is a real value in herbs but until there are more clinical tests made on humans it is unsafe to use them. An unanimous advice given by urologist is to consult your physician before taking any erectile dysfunction treatment including Viagra, Levitra, Cialis or herbal sex aids.

New Analysis of Data Shows That Lilly ICOS' Cialis Significantly Improves Erections for Up to 36 Hours.

2004-06-10T11:37:00.000-07:00

British Journal of Urology published a data analyze regarding Cialis Tadalafil PDE5 inhibitor developed by Lilly ICOS LLC (NYSE: LLY; Nasdaq: ICOS). The test was made on over 2000 men in 11 separate Cialis clinical trials. The results shows that Cialis is effective and very well tolerated erectile dysfunction treatment regardless of the severity, cause and age.

Doctor Culley C. Carson, M.D., chief of urology and Rhodes Distinguished Professor, University of North Carolina affirmed that "The combined results of 11 clinical trials make for compelling evidence that Cialis is an effective treatment option for erectile dysfunction for up to 36 hours after taking the tablet,"

The experiment was made on 2010 men the were suffering from mid to severe erectile dysfunction who participated in 11 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials lasting 12 weeks. All the subjects were randomized to receive Cialis and placebo taken without food. The test was made using 10 and 20 mg Cialis pills.

The test data showed that Cialis works form 24 to 46 hours. 71% of all men that used 10 mg Cialis pills had positive results improving their erection. The test that was made on 20 mg Cialis showed better results, over 84% reported improved erections, compared with 33 percent in the placebo group.

The side effects in this test trials were back pain, upset stomach and headache. The side effects were mild to moderate and disappear after the treatment was stopped. Still there was a small number of patients that leaved the tests due to the side effects: (10 mg, 1.6 percent; 20 mg, 3.2 percent). Is very interesting that the discontinuation rate was slightly higher than among those in the placebo group (1.3 percent, p=.026). The test was made on an average 56 years men group. Almost three-quarters of them were taking another medication for another condition, including diabetes and hypertension. In this study 20 percent of the men with ED had diabetes and 29 percent had hypertension.

"This analysis further confirms that the attribute that Cialis provides improvement in erectile function up to 36 hours may give men with ED increased confidence to choose when they engage in sexual intercourse, and thereby potentially allows for more spontaneity within their relationships." - Culley C. Carson, M.D., chief of urology and Rhodes Distinguished Professor, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.

Erectile dysfunction prescription drugs.

2004-06-09T12:05:00.000-07:00

Viagra – is the first and the best known PDE inhibitor used to treat impotence in men. Viagra active ingredient is Sildenafil Citrate and can be found in 25mg, 50mg and 100mg oral tablet. Viagra is a Pfizer product approved by FDA on March 27, 1998.

Bayer Pharmaceuticals has launched, as an alternative to Viagra, Levitra. In August 19, 2003, Levitra was approved by FDA. Levitra active ingredient is named Vardenafil. Levitra is available in 2.5, 5, 10, 20 mg oral tablets.

The latest discovery in erectile dysfunction treatment is Cialis. Lilly ICOS LLC newest ED treatment is based on an active ingredient named Tadalafil.

Comparing to Viagra, Cialis works 5 times longer.

Cialis was approved by the Food and Drug Administration in November 21, 2003. Due the longer action and better response Cialis is quickly gaining ground.
It looks like Pfizer Viagra sales have fallen each of the five months since Cialis aggressive marketing campaign started. Viagra sales dropped 9.1 percent in April from a year ago.
According to Atlanta-based NDCHealth Corp., Viagra sales dropped 25 percent to $220 million in the first quarter.

South Africa Viagra gets stiff competition from Cialis

2004-06-09T11:34:00.000-07:00

After only 10 months after Lilly ICOS LLC launched Cialis in South Africa the company said that it now has over 45% of R70 million annual market share of the erectile dysfunction drugs. This statement was made by marketing director Jacques Blaauw. South Africa erectile

Cialis may erase prostate problems

2004-06-09T11:33:00.000-07:00

It looks like Cialis has already taken an important share of Viagra sales. In the quarterly-earnings report, Lilly ICOS LLC announced the Cialis may have a potential new use. Cialis can be used for pulmonary hypertension. Also In some tests Cialis had successful results in relaxing the prostate muscles. The tests were made on animal and human.
This new test results open an new market for Lilly ICOS LLC. There are almost 3 million men in the United States and Europe that are suffering from prostate affections.
The current prostate treatment pill cost 1$ to $2 pill. Cialis and Viagra costs from $8 to $10 a pill and have adverse effects on alpha blockers and nitrates. It looks that there is a long way until Cialis will become a standard prostate treatment. However a commune treatment to erectile dysfunction and prostate treatment would appeal to a lot of men.
