Zonagen lie #7: Phentolamine is a dandy way to treat ED...right? Well...sort of....maybe. Certain drugs in combination with Phentolamine when injected directly into the penis has shown promise in some studies. It is very important to note that the FDA has not approved Phentolamine for this purpose.. Now let's ask a reasonable quesion: If there is absolutely no evidence that Phentolamine - a vasodilator - works by itself when injected into the penis, and it is not approved for this purpose... ...then why would it work orally? And I'll point out yet one more time that Zonagen's own patent - the patent they purchased that covers the administration of the drug by any means except oral - opines that it is very poor method. And now you understand exactly why Zonagen has obfuscated the results of Phase II and Phase III trials. search.cybermedical.com
