Roland, Re :

" Gee I don't suppose there would be any drinking going on prior to a phentolamine
dose. If drinking is a potential complication with Zona it sounds like a real problem
for a widely distributed drug to treat a non-life threatening condition. Can any of you
doctors tell me whether alcohol is a potential complication for Muse? "

I meant to answer this a long time ago but forgot.Here it is. There are no reported side
effects from Muse and Alcohol.Muse is likely to cause low blood pressure MUCH LESS than Zona
because Zona is more systemically distributed.Don't forget the gist of
the matter here: it'll take a whole lot of Zona to fill up a 200+ pound
red-neck gg,to get alittle bitsy-weeny of it to his Charlie;to
the pointin fact of dropping his blood pressur so looooow, that Charlie
may get nothing at all, because the red-neck croaked! ouch!
(no offense intended to red necks in general; gg; they are good people).

TA
PS Joke aside, HEAVY alcohol intake causes a 50 % icidence of impotence;
If you are an alcoholic you may have a very low blood pressure to begin with
and may tolerate nothing; I don't know to be honest;further studies
will be needed to elucidate if Muse can help chronic alcoholics.
