A rub-on gel could be the first over-the-counter treatment for impotency, a company has announced.
It is being developed by Futura Medical in collaboration with pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline.
The treatment, called MED2002, is expected to go into clinical trials at the end of 2006.

Managing the steady stream of email that gathers in your inbox every day can feel like an impossible task.
