What is a Generic Drug?
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

Product Details
Description
Eroxon is an over-the-counter medication used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED). ED is a common condition where individuals consistently struggle to achieve or maintain an erection for sexual activity.
Eroxon is considered a “non-medicated” treatment because it contains no active ingredient. Eroxon works through evaporation and physical stimulation to produce an erection. The evaporation produces a cooling and warming effect that stimulates blood flow.
Eroxon will only work if you are sexually aroused.
Eroxon is approved for use in men 18 and older in the European Union (EU) and men 22 and older in the United States.
