This un-armed man now has your money.

Phentolamine is an ancient generic medication which has proven ineffective when used alone in the treatment of ED. It is sometimes used in combination with other drugs and injected directly - however the FDA has not approved it for this purpose.

Since it is well established that phentolamine does not work for ED when injected by itself directly into the penis, it seems highly unlikely that the FDA will approve a systemic solution (i.e. a magic pill). I would put the odds of rejection at say...ohhh...100%. but this is a moot point, since I seriously doubt that Zonagen will submit an NDA. Maybe in the meantime thay can give us all another laugh by re-announcing their phony stock buyback.

Zonagen has indeed obfuscated the trial results. First of all the experiments themselves (particularly the German trials) were poorly designed, and the results of their poorly designed experiments still show no statistically significant proof (when compared to placebo) that phentolamine mesylate works. End of story.

Zonagen is a fraud and will soon trade in the gutter. You can insult me all you wish and keep making lame accusations that I work for "Asholio" but this will not change the fact that Zonagen is a worthless shell and a classic "pump and dump" scam stock.
