Information for out-of-state and international patients<\/a>. Find out our office hours or directions to our office<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n We offer affordable appointment prices<\/a> with or without insurance. Low-cost Viagra (sildenafil) and Cialis (tadalafil) are available to our patients.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n At New York Urology Specialists we have successfully treated thousands of men who previously suffered from problems with erections<\/strong>. All treatment is confidential.<\/strong><\/p>\n Penile injection therapy results in high satisfaction rates<\/strong> among men for whom oral medications do not work well. Men who experience severe side effects from oral medications,<\/strong> such as sildenafil and tadalafil<\/a><\/strong>, can use penile injections to get good erections.<\/p>\n The part of the penis that creates erections<\/strong> is called “corpus cavernosum”. Injectable medications used in the treatment of ED are injected directly into the part of the penis where erections occur.<\/p>\n At New York Urology Specialists, we offer penile injection therapy with Trimix, Quadmix, Edex,<\/strong> and other effective preparations for the treatment of erectile dysfunction<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n Schedule an appointment<\/a> <\/strong>for an evaluation to see if you are a good candidate for penile injection treatment for ED. At New York Urology Specialists, you may save thousands of dollars<\/strong> by learning facts about other penile injections, such as “platelet injections” that are offered for ED.<\/p>\n Erectile dysfunction treatment<\/strong> with injections offers a number of benefits to men. Penis injections allow many men to obtain excellent erection quality (hardness)<\/strong> when oral pills and supplements do not work as well. Using injection therapy for erectile dysfunction can also allow men to maintain erections<\/strong> for a prolonged period of time without losing it even after ejaculation. This is helpful to men with premature ejaculation<\/a>.<\/p>\n Many men are worried about the pain of self-injecting medications in the penis. Fortunately, using tiny needles, penile injections are nearly painless<\/strong>.<\/p>\n At New York Urology Specialists, we offer therapy with penile injection therapy as one of the many options<\/strong><\/a> for men who experience difficulty obtaining erections that are sufficient for intercourse. Our procedure for men who are interested in penile injections for ED:<\/p>\n Our experienced urologists have treated hundreds of men with penile injection therapy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n A few different medications are available to choose from that can be injected into the penis to produce a good erection. <\/strong>We use our extensive experience and patient preferences to determine the most appropriate medication for each patient.<\/p>\n Medications used for penile injections act on the blood vessels to improve blood flow<\/strong> to the penis. Injectable medications used for ED treatment include in order of potency:<\/p>\n Each medication (Prostaglandin, Bimix, Trimix, Quadmix) is available in multiple concentrations<\/strong> (strengths); medications obtained from different pharmacies are not<\/strong> interchangeable.<\/p>\n Medications used for penile injections require a prescription. At New York Urology Specialists, we require a full evaluation before penile injections are prescribed. <\/strong><\/span> It is important that you fully understand all options available<\/strong> for the treatment of ED, as well as the risks and benefits of penile injection therapy for impotence.<\/p>\n Before we prescribe penile injections, the correct medication and the correct dose need to be selected<\/strong>. In general, when choosing medication, our goal is to select the medication and dose to provide an excellent erection that does not last more than 1 hour (to avoid the risk of priapism). This is typically performed during a penile Doppler ultrasound<\/a> <\/strong>study to evaluate the severity and cause of erection problems.<\/p>\n Retail pharmacies such as CVS, Walgreens, and others do not<\/strong> carry Bimix, Trimix, and Quadmix; these need to be custom-ordered from special pharmacies<\/strong>. At New York Urology Specialists, we only use FDA-certified pharmacies<\/strong>. Retail pharmacies carry EDEX<\/a><\/strong> and Caverject<\/a>, <\/strong>but tend to be very expensive compared to generic prostaglandin<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n For the convenience of our patients, we work with pharmacies that offer less expensive injectable medications that require refrigeration; we also work with pharmacies that offer more expensive medications that do not require refrigeration<\/a>,<\/strong> which is convenient for men who travel extensively.<\/p>\n Injectable medications for ED are highly effective,<\/strong> but they are associated with some side effects that do not occur with oral medications<\/strong><\/a>. <\/p>\n A small number of men may experience pain after penile injections if the erections are too strong. Lowering the dose of medications usually solves this problem. <\/p>\n When prostaglandin is injected alone<\/strong>, 30-40% of men report pain, which occurs when the medication starts working, typically 10-15 minutes after injection. <\/b><\/span> This pain is rare with Trimix<\/a> <\/strong>and does not occur with Bimix<\/a><\/strong>. Pain typically goes away after a few hours. Pain is dose-dependent<\/strong>. If a small dose of prostaglandin does not cause pain, a higher dose might cause penile pain. For men who experience pain with alprostadil, the medication is usually changed to Bimix or Trimix.<\/p>\n Additional risks of injectable medications are priapism<\/strong> <\/a>(an erection that lasts more than 3-4 hours). Should an erection last more than 3-4 hours, the patient needs to go to the nearest emergency room for treatment. Typically, the first few doses of these medications are administered in our office, and the patient is observed; the goal is to choose a dose of medication that <\/strong>creates a good erection that lasts under an hour<\/strong>. This minimizes the risk of priapism. We require patients to have phenylephrine injections at home to self-inject in case erections last more than 2 hours to make erections go away. <\/p>\n Long-term use of penile injections is also associated with a risk of developing scarring in the penis<\/a>, which can lead to penile curvature, narrowing, or shortening (Peyronie’s disease<\/strong>)<\/a>.<\/p>\n Penile injection therapy<\/strong><\/a> is a well-tolerated treatment for ED with high effectiveness<\/strong>. It is appropriate for men who do not achieve desirable results with oral treatment options such as Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, and Stendra, or for whom shockwave therapy for ED does not work<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n Penile injection is a good alternative for men who experience unpleasant side effects from oral medications<\/strong> such as sildenafil, tadalafil, and avanafil. Penile injections are also used as part of penile rehabilitation therapy after radical prostatectomy. Men for whom penile injection therapy does not work or who are unwilling to self-inject can be effectively treated with a penile implant<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n Please read the important considerations about penile injection therapy<\/a>. Learn about other treatment options for impotence in men<\/a>.<\/p>\n Read answers to common questions about penile injections<\/a><\/strong>, considerations when traveling with Trimix<\/a><\/strong>, and the logistics of penile injections<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n At New York Urology Specialists, we offer specialized treatment for ED in men<\/strong>.
