This is a relatively new prostaglandin product that has been teasing us for a few years already. It's a sort of topical version of Caverject and claims to rapidly induce an erection by application to the glans. It was approved in Canada in 2010 but has still not been marketed there or anywhere else. The marketing licence has changed hands more than once and it was subjected to a fast-track approval process in Europe in Spring 2013.
Vitaros is the 'invention' of one of those biotech companies that seem to specialise in developing products that challenge a unique market position that is currently held by a major manufacturer. The big boys buy up the new product just to keep it off the market until their leading brand's patent expires. That makes a lot of money for the biotech boys who then move on to develop another challenger.

As the patents are soon due to expire on Viagra, Cialis and Levitra, we can only hope that Vitaros will appear in the not too distant future.
