• The aggregate German, Irish and Dutch market for erectile dysfunction (ED) market exceeds $175 million
• Aspargo plans to launch Sildenafil Spray in Germany, Ireland, and the Netherlands under the brand name, “HEZKUE™”

ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., Jan. 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Aspargo Laboratories, Inc. (“Aspargo”), a privately held specialty pharmaceutical company focused on commercializing innovative formulations of leading tablet medications, announced today that the German Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices has authorized the marketability of “Hezkue™ 12.5 mg per actuation, oral suspension” in Germany effective as of January 12, 2023. The German market – the largest in the EU – represents an important element of Aspargo’s global expansion strategy. Recently, Aspargo received corresponding approvals in Ireland and the Netherlands.

“These product approvals reflect Aspargo’s commitment to quickly expand its global platform to the EU during 2023,” said Michael Demurjian, Aspargo’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The Marketing Authorizations are an important achievement. They validate Aspargo’s international regulatory strategy and confirm that Aspargo meets the highest standards required to ensure the safe distribution of sildenafil spray.”

Aspargo developed the brand name, HEZKUE™, with assistance from its commercialization consultant, Syneos Health, a global biopharma solutions organization, following focus groups and surveys with physicians, pharmacists, and patients. The criteria used to select the brand name included first impressions, spelling and pronunciation, interpretation, attributes, favorite name and recall. Brand names used to market a drug are subject to approval of the respective health authorities in each country.

Sildenafil Spray is an oral liquid suspension of sildenafil citrate administered via a spray pump that dispenses 12.5 mg of sildenafil per push. Aspargo uses a metered-dose container that delivers the precise amount of sildenafil citrate per push based on patient need. The discreet and easy-to-carry oral spray allows the user to customize dosing and avoid pill splitting or crushing attendant with the traditional tablet medication.

Erectile dysfunction is characterized by the persistent difficulty achieving and maintaining an erection sufficient to have sexual intercourse. While the prevalence of ED has been shown to increase with age, a recent study conducted by the Sexual Medicine and Andrology Unit of the University of Florence, Italy, showed that ED in younger men is likely to be overlooked and dismissed without a proper medical assessment.
