Misoprostol for Glans Engorgement revisited

[crazyjoe]

There have been posts in the past about misoprostol -- I looked into it and found some very positive findings in a scientific study.

Drawn from the conclusions was the following:

Results of these treatments on the subjects were compared (see Table 5). According to Table 5, results from the application of misoprostol on the glans penis or the urethra were clearly superior, compared with those of intraurethral application of alprostadil and intracavernosal injection or papaverine. These were approximately equal to intracavernosal injection of alprostadil. Compared to results obtained, using other methods, e.g. alprostadil for intraurethral use, the pharmacological results of misoprostol were stronger and had a greater durability, plus significantly lower cost. It is notable that although in all cases the same dose was applied (approx. 800 &mgr;g) so that results could be evaluated, several subjects responded satisfactorily to lower doses (100-200 &mgr;g).

First I've heard of it. I just got some alprostadil (PGE1) intraurethral gel for glans engorgement from my Urologist. I will ask about this misoprostol next visit.
I had been using the Muse formulation but it's no longer available apparently.
