For the first time Eroxon® is available to men with ED and their partners with the launch of Eroxon® in Europe by our European partner Cooper. Launches have continued globally throughout 2024, with Eroxon® now available in Mexico and soon to be available in the US from October 2024.

Cooper Consumer Health (Cooper) launched in the UK and Belgium in March 2023 with further launches in key markets including France, Italy, Spain and Portugal in 2024. The results of the launches in these initial markets have been encouraging with very strong media interest in the launch, early signs of repeat purchase from customers, and Eroxon® receiving several high profile industry awards.

Launch and retail success story

The UK launch PR campaign was very successful with exclusives in national newspapers and the product being discussed on TV. This was followed by a significant TV advertising campaign and in-store activity. The product was initially only available through Boots, the UK’s leading health and beauty retailer, and one of the most trusted UK healthcare brands. This was a key element of the strategy to build the credibility of the product, alongside the KOL and HCP engagement programme. Eroxon® is now available in over 2,500 retail stores across the UK as well as online from retailers such as amazon.

Haleon – World class partner for the US market

2023 was a year of great progress towards our goal of launching Eroxon® in the USA with the FDA approving Eroxon® in June and Futura signing a deal with Haleon in July 2023 for the rights to exclusively commercialise Eroxon® in the USA. As part of the agreement, Futura received an initial upfront payment of US$ 4 million, will receive further royalty payments on all sales, and potential commercial and performance driven sales milestone payments totalling between US$ 5 million and US$ 45 million payable over the course of several years.

Haleon is responsible for all investment activities related to the launch and marketing of the product in the USA, with Futura providing ongoing technical support for OTC product development and commercialisation opportunities. Haleon has confirmed that Eroxon® is now available to pre-order online and will be available in major US retailers in October.

The USA is the largest consumer healthcare market and has the potential to be the largest market for Eroxon® helping to address the unmet needs of men with ED. There are around 23 million men with ED in the USA1 but 3 out of 4 are not on treatment2 highlighting significant unmet needs. According to Ipsos’ forecast, commissioned by Futura, the market opportunity for Eroxon® OTC in the USA is US$ 350+ million (retail price)3. This is based on a retail price of US$ 5 per tube (pricing strategy is the responsibility of our commercial partner).
