Well how about 15 minutes and will last the entire sexual encounter? Sound good? Well this is what the new promising drug for Erectile Dysfunction Avanafil is claiming.

Well enter Biotech firm Vivus, effective in just 15 minutes with Avanafil. That could cut down foreplay times to those couples who just want to get on with it. In its final testing phase for the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) to give it the green light, the studies have come back with these times.

Leland Wilson, Vivus’ CEO, says “the magnitude of success in the first 15 minutes was surprising.” From the other currently available oral ED (erectile dysfunction) therapies such as Viagra or Cialis, it shows the profile and differentiation between them.
