On the lighter side of Muse - 4 hour to 6 hour erections!!! This from the VVUS home page "What are the side effects and contraindications for MUSE? The most serious local side effects in clinical trials were priapism (rigid erection lasting more than 6 hours) and prolonged erection (rigid erection lasting more than 4 hours and under 6 hours), reported by <0.1% and 0.3% of patients, respectively. Although infrequent, these events are a potential risk of pharmacologic therapy. Physicians should lower the dose or consider discontinuing MUSE treatment in any patient who develops priapism or prolonged erection.1" (emphasis added).
