<<1) There is zero evidence that Phentolamine is effective in treating MED>>

It's up to the person claiming that Phentolamine IS effective to come up with the proof! From all the publically available clinical research it is clear that phentolamine (when injected and used alone) does not produce erections. Zonagen's own trials (which were improperly set up I may add) showed very little improvement over placebo.

<<2) The Vasomax 40mg dose is too close to the toxic dose.>>

Start getting up to 60 and 80 mg and you start seeing significant occurences of cardiac AEs (even when examining the data from Zonagen's own trials). This is very alarming. I can just imagine some guy with a heart condition popping two of these thinking he'll get twice as hard.
