British company set to challenge US Sites for erectile dysfunction market - Firstmed, the UK’s leading online Erectile Dysfunction and Male Impotence Specialist announced today that they intend to expand eastwards in an attempt to secure a piece of the lucrative Japanese market for online ED treatments.
It is estimated that six to seven million men suffer impotence in Japan. However, the Japanese government has placed a ban on all online prescriptions. This means that Japanese doctors and pharmacies are unable to operate online and outside of physically walking to a clinic near them, obtaining treatment is impossible. However, the Japanese government does not restrict people from importing prescription drugs from foreign sites.
