As University of Minnesota students reach for condoms to have sex, one professor is on the verge of creating a male contraception similar to the female birth control pills.
The University’s College of Pharmacy Department of Medicinal Chemistry head Gunda Georg is working with a team of scientists to develop Gamendazole, a drug that may give males an alternative to condoms and vasectomies.
The drug has shown effectiveness in tests on rats, rabbits and non-human primates, Georg said.
The research team will soon begin requesting approval from the Food and Drug Administration to test the drug in a clinical setting.
Georg said the drug will be a “reversible” alternative to permanent vasectomies because men will be able to take the pill to temporarily minimize fertility and can regain fertility if they stop taking it.
