 Erectile Dysfunction Treatment  Self injection Therapy
Self injection therapy offers the patient quick results, and a high success rate (80%) with minimal side effects. The injected solution is a prescription medication (often Caverject Impulse or Edex) or a mixture combined by a physician or pharmacy often contains, papaverine, phentolamine and/or alprostadil. Unwanted results such as priapism can be a result of an overdose. Rare side effects such as bruising, bleeding, or a build up of scar tissue (fibrosis) may also occur in some patients. Transurethral therapy involves a medicated urethral system (MUSE) to deposit medication in to the urethra in order to obtain erections. The patient will place the suppository inside the urethra with a specially designed applicator. MUSE is quite safe, but some patients do find side effects such as burning, bleeding, pain, or low blood pressure.
