Besides the discomfort of the congestion caused by the alprostadil the biggest drawback to MUSE is the distance the applicator has to be put into the urethra. Over 1 ". Thats why I mentioned the gel as a technique whereby the material could be squirted into the Fossa Navicularis and then easily massaged back into the urethra to be absorbed. At one time a local pharmacy was producing a liquid alprostadil for patients to use by squirting it into the urethra and getting good results (not tested). A smaller diameter inserter would IMO be a setback because it would be too sharp and patients could hurt themselves during insertion. Shorter would be good however.
All IMO
