MED3000 is the first pan-European topical treatment for ED available without the need of a doctor's prescription and available over the counter ("OTC").

 

Cooper Consumer Healthcare, a leading International independent self-care organisation that now holds the rights to commercialise MED3000 throughout the EEA, the United Kingdom and Switzerland will be in attendance.

 

Cooper is on track to launch MED3000 in the first half of 2023, as previously guided, and has already commenced pre-launch activities and expects the first product supplies to be available in the coming months. 

 

Subject to the US Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") granting Marketing Authorisation, MED3000 has the potential to become the first major ED treatment available OTC throughout the USA.

 

Futura has established a network of licensing and distribution partners with strength in brand building, pharmaceutical credibility, regional infrastructure, and marketing expertise for long-term distribution of MED3000 across the globe.

 

To date, Futura has signed commercial agreements in key markets including the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, the Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC) region, Switzerland and South Korea. It has also established a strong and expanding distribution platform for regions outside the key US market. As announced in December 2022, Futura's corporate advisors formally commenced the search for a US commercial partner and continue to be engaged in a number of ongoing discussions.
