Futura Medical plc (AIM: FUM), the pharmaceutical group that develops innovative products for consumer healthcare, is pleased to announce that its innovative spray for enhanced sexual control, PET500, has been showcased by its commercial partner at the annual Marketplace meeting of the US National Association of Chain Drug Stores (NACDS) in Denver, Colorado.
Marketplace, which this year was held on 23 to 26 June, is the largest conference of its type in the USA. It is attended by the decision makers from the food, drug and mass retail industries who together purchase products worth more than US$500 billion annually.

PET500, a topical spray that combines Futura's DermaSys® AquaFree delivery system with a mild topical anaesthetic, is designed to delay male ejaculation and to take effect quickly.
James Barder, Futura's Chief Executive, said: "We are very encouraged by the initial reaction to PET500 at this major US trade show ahead of the phased roll-out of the product in the USA."
