Penile Injection Therapy
 Today,
one of the techniques used to treat impotence (erectile
dysfunction) is
penile injection therapy. Here, the man suffering from impotence has to inject some medication like
alprostadil to the base of the penis. With this, the penis becomes stiff immediately and this erection lasts for one to two hours.
However, these injections should be used only once a day, thrice a week. You may need to make a few clinic visits to find out the dosage you might need. The advantage of penile injection therapy is that there is no surgery is involved, and that it is basically effective in dialysis patients.
Penile injection therapy is the better alternative for the men who cannot get an erection with
Viagra.
Besides alprostadil, there are other drugs that can be injected into the penis for an erection. These drugs are
papaverine and phentolamine which are taken either singularly or in a combination. It is usually after fifteen minutes that the man gets an erection, and this may last for few hours.
However, it is important that that the drugs be used strictly according to the prescription. Otherwise, the man may suffer from a
prolonged erection called
priapism.
With priapism, blood does not drain from the penis. With this, the penile tissue may get damaged and thus proves to be rather painful to the male. This is the reason this therapy may prove to be rather risky to a male having a history of drug abuse as the therapy is successful only with the exact dosage of the drug; and not more.
Penile injection therapy may also be a difficult option to the person with SCI and limited hand functions. In such cases, he should have someone willing to learn and give him the injections.
The drugs for penile injection therapy can be found in most medical shops. Some drug kits may have large needles in them which prove to be inconvenient. So you should also use injections diabetics use for insulin injections. You use the large needle to mix the powder and liquid, and then change to the diabetic injection for injection.
The reason large needles are provided in the kits is to ensure that you don't cut the needles accidentally while injecting. At least, then the company will be sure that there is not going to be any litigation coming their way asking for damages.
Sometimes, men use penile injection therapy along with an external
vacuum device so that there are better results. However, this proves to be a difficult and expensive procedure where romantic spontaneity may also get reduced.

How much time needed to cure
erectile dysfunction
