Question. I am a 43-year-old male, allergic to latex condoms. Whenever I use condoms, I get a burning sensation on my penis, and a doctor told me I'm allergic to latex. What medicines can I use to ease the burning sensation? Are antibiotics okay? Are there any non-latex condoms that I can use instead? I found Durex Bare online but haven't been able to find them at any pharmacy. Are there any other brands available? Please help.
Answer. Have you tried the Durex fine variety which has no ointment on it? Apply a thin layer of Betnovate cream on the erect penis before slipping on the condom. After coitus, if you have a problem, don't use antibiotics. You can contact Durex and they can ship you the condoms directly. Ask the drugs controller for any formalities to be completed. It may be worthwhile to consult an allergy specialist.

every major condom manufacturer has polyisoprene based non latex condoms. Trojan, LifeStyle and Durex do have them.
Durex has a variety called Avanti Bare which is kinda good
