Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns

You are wondering how to get diquafosol here in the US. Unfortunately it is not available in the US. If you wanted to get some you would need to travel to Japan. There are currently on going studies in the US but the FDA has not approved it yet.

I hope I answered your question. Please contact us again if you have any additional questions
