When will Zanifil condoms be release in UK and Europe?

Good news, zanifil condoms have been given the CE stamp of approval and will be released in the UK "in the second half of 2014" according to the license holder Futura Medical. The site mentions that they are looking for exclusive distribution from a condom wholesaler in the UK and EU. This, to date has not yet been disclosed, meaning where the new condoms can be obtained is still a mystery. Most likely, one of the big pharmacy chains such as Boots will have the initial distribution rights for an exclusive period of time which will then move to the general pharmacy market sometime in mid-2015.

Interestingly enough, although the product name is "zanifil" it is unrelated to the popular erectile dysfunction medicine "sildenafil" most commonly known as Pfizer brand "Viagra". It is based around a more common, traditional "medicine", glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) sometimes known as "poppers".

There are many side effects to GTN, taken orally, but the genius of zanifil condoms if that they work locally so you are unlikely to experience the common side effects of systemic nitrates such as headaches and generalised flushing (the flushing occurs where it is most needed ;)).

As it is currently unavailable, why not use our family run, confidential online pharmacy, run in collaboration with GMC registered doctors and GPhC registered pharmacists at Douglas Pharmacy, to obtain other treatments?

Erectile Dysfunction PGD - Zanifil Condoms

Running your own erectile dysfunction clinics using our Erectile Dysfunction PGD is great as you can help patients get what they need. The PGDs covers the most popular oral treatments - Sildenafil, Vardenafil and Tadalafil. Some of our members having been starting erectile dysfunction clinics where the pharmacist has protected time for patients who would like to access the service. But what else apart from the oral tablets can be recommended?

  • Vacuum pumps - these are non prescription items which can offer a valuable alternative to pharmacological action.
  • Zanifil Condoms - a new product from Durex, zanifil is very similar to sildenafil and is included as a gel inside of the condom. We have been in contact with Reckitt-Beckiser, however a release date has yet to be confirmed.
  • Counselling and referrals - although our PGD has wide inclusion criteria if you feel that the patients ED symptoms are in part caused by obvious psychological reasons you should refer.


Overall, patients can now access a wider arrange of solutions from pharmacists using Pharmacy PGDs. In addition to ED, there are solutions to premature ejaculation such as STUD spray which can prolong ejaculation.
