ABSTRACT:
A condom with a vasodilator delivery system is provided for producing and maintaining the erection of a male penis during intercourse. The vasodilator may be applied as a coating in a suitable pharmaceutical vehicle to the inner surface of the condom during manufacture. Alternatively, the vasodilator may be contained in a transdermal patch adhered during manufacture to the condom inside wall. The transdermal patch comprises a thin, smooth-edged layered structure for dispensing a suitable vasodilator to the penis skin surface. The transdermal patch may remain attached to the condom inner wall during use, and in so doing release its vasodilator into a suitable vehicle and lubricant for spreading to the entire penis skin surface. Alternatively, the transdermal patch may have an inner and an outer adhesive so that, when manufactured, the patch adheres to the inner condom wall, but upon use, the user applies pressure to the outside condom surface adjacent to the patch to adhere the inner surface of the patch to the skin of the penis during use of the condom.
