Surprising news that an ED medication is being released over-the-counter.
Our main topic this time is the announcement from SS Seiyaku regarding the over-the-counter availability of the ED medication Cialis. It is surprising news that what previously required a doctor's examination at a hospital will now be available for purchase at pharmacies and drugstores. However, it is important to note that it is not available for anyone to buy easily; it will be handled as a controlled drug requiring guidance from a pharmacist.
There seems to be a system for purchasing after a consultation with a specialist.
As for how to obtain it, for in-store purchases, you need to fill out a checklist and present it to a pharmacist. For online purchases, it seems you also need to undergo a remote consultation with a pharmacist after being assessed via a checklist. Amid concerns about counterfeit drugs, this shift toward obtaining them safely through these formal procedures is a major change.
Knowing its features, it seems you can use it differently than Viagra.
The discussion further expands into the effects of the newly released Cialis. We compare it with Viagra, touching on its remarkable duration of up to 36 hours and the fact that it is less affected by food intake. We discuss the timing of administration and important precautions in more depth in the full episode, so please check that out.
