HealthNews: New Name, Treatments for Impotence "The MUSE system (Medicated Urethral System for Erection) uses a disposable applicator to squirt a premeasured dose of alprostadil-the main drug used in injection therapy-into the opening at the tip of the penis. This causes minimal discomfort. Just as with injections, the drug relaxes penile arteries and increases blood flow, beginning an erection. Clinical trials show that it works for approximately 60 percent of men. A new oral drug called sil-denafil (Viagra), now in clinical trials, appears to be at least as effective as vacuum devices and injection therapy. A tablet taken a few hours before sexual activity boosts levels of artery-relaxing agents inside the penis. This drug doesn't create an erection; instead, it amplifies the reaction to sexual signals. :" mmmmmm...........doesn't create an erection??? Mike
