@rrhoover great question! Drug manufacturers cannot distribute drugs directly to patients. For medication that requires a prescription, it is always at the medical discretion of a physician. This is to make to sure that a physician is not biased or incentivized to prescribe a specific "brand" of medication. Roman enables patients to voice a preference (different drugs have different durations and time to take effect) but the physicians always have the final call.

@mdagabriele Thanks so much! We've really worked hard to establish a voice and brand that helps redefine the stereotypes around masculinity.

@alexisohanian Thanks so much, Alexis. We're thrilled to have you and the Initialized team involved.

@leifthunder Thanks so much! Really appreciate the support.

@mattahorton Hey Matt - great question. We've made the process incredibly easy for people who experience ED to get treatment. In the states we are currently available (NY, FL, PA, CA) you go through a simple 5-min online visit, where we ask you about your health and medical information. If it's a straightforward case, our physicians will be able to write you a prescription within two hours. If they have any follow up questions, they will contact you via chat or phone. If you are a good candidate for therapy, your prescription will be written and shipped to you next day via our Roman Pharmacy Network for free. Patients can always contact us via secure chat, phone or even video chat should they have any questions. Hope this answers your question!

@saman_rahmanian I was reading that urologists make about $200/hr, so I was wondering how you cover physician costs with your $15 fee if physicians are involved with every Roman customer?

@nick_hollinger Are you sure that's why she was looking at you that way, Nick? Thanks for the support!
