Hello from the UK

I have just joined Frank Talk. I am 68 and have had some degree of ED since 1989. Until a few years ago Viagra did the trick but no longer so I now use alprostadil 40 micrograms either as Caverject or as another manufacturer (similar to the US Edex I imagine). We are lucky in the U.K. because some of us get this for free on the National Health Service. I would just mention something that seems to be missing from all the postings that I have read. An injectable called INVICORP ( a mixture of aviptadil and phentolamine) . It is currently imported from Sweden into the UK. It is licensed in both the UK and Sweden and New Zealand AND according to the information I have read in the United States. I am waiting to try it subject to my urologist's agreement. My pharmacist tells me that it is over 85% effective. It is pain-free (you can't say that about Caverject) and no cases of priapism have been seen and no cases of plaque. It is running £125 (say US$ 180) for 5 doses. It does require refrigeration. It is OK at room temperature for 3 days.

George:

First, welcome to our clan. This is a good place and you will find a number of helpful suggestions and people over time.

Glad you also posted this under the Injection comment under that section of our discussion forums. It is apt to get a wider readership there. A ?. Is this injection able to be formed by a compounding pharmacy? Don't know if they exist in the UK but here in the US there are pharmacies who specialize in the production of special compounds. If that is doable the cost should decrease markedly for us guys.

Please keep us posted if you are able to secure some this new magic juice and let us know how well it works and your thoughts.

Also join in the chat room when you can. There can be no one there or a whole group; and from any part of the world.

Again, welcome.

Regards,

Dick
