From The Inventor Of Viagra, A Spray For Long Lasting Love
23:55 GMT, 15 June 2012
He put smiles on millions
of faces when he helped invent Viagra. Now the brains behind the little
blue pills claims to have done it again. Mike Wyllie, one of the team of scientists who developed Viagra
in the 1990s, has created a drug that tackles premature ejaculation.
He predicts the spray-on medication
, designed to prolong the joy of sex for millions of sufferers
and their partners, is likely to become ‘the next blockbuster’ drug.
Premature ejaculation affects more than one in four men – making it more common than the impotence
tackled by Viagra. Most are too embarrassed to seek help and when they do, treatments are generally
limited to powerful anti-depressants and counselling.
There is one pill specifically designed to treat the problem but it is expensive and not widely available in
the UK. In contrast, it is hoped the spray, called Tempe, which could be on sale within months, will be
cheap enough for prescription on the NHS.
In trials,
some men using the spray ahead of sex lasted
up to eight times longer
. But the drug is
generally thought to treble a man’s "staying power". ‘It is as much appreciated by partners as by the sufferers,’
Dr Wyllie said.
Premature ejaculation can wreck self-esteem, make it difficult to form relationships and, at its worst, can
make it impossible for partners to become pregnant. While the exact causes are unclear, it is thought
over-sensitivity contributes to the problem.
Tempe contains low doses of two anaesthetics which help give a man more control, without creating an
uncomfortable numbing sensation.
It takes about five minutes to get to work, but those who do not wish to give away their secret will be
pleased to know it can be sprayed on up to two hours before sex.
A pocket-sized can
will last a year, if a man has sex five or six times a month.
The average European man has staying power of six minutes, said Dr John Dean, an expert who helped
run the trials. The drug is aimed at those who struggle to last a minute and is not thought to provide
much extra time to those who do not have a problem
