We have excellent reviews from patients <\/a><\/strong>and their partners. 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 Patients who use penile injections for the treatment of erectile dysfunction<\/a><\/strong> should be aware of special considerations that need to be taken into account when traveling.<\/p>\n For patients who use preparations of prostaglandin E and Trimix<\/a> <\/strong>that require refrigeration, appropriate transport arrangements should be made. For patients who travel extensively, consider switching to using a preparation of prostaglandin E or Trimix that do not require refrigeration<\/strong>. At New York Urology Specialists, we offer patients non-refrigerated Trimix that is convenient for travel.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Transporting needles for penile injections should not cause any problems within the United States as long as they are checked-in baggage. Nonetheless, it is a good idea to have a doctor’s note stating that you have been prescribed these medications and needles that are required for your health.<\/p>\n For international travel<\/strong>, we recommend having a doctor’s note stating that you have been prescribed both medications and needles for injections to minimize problems at border crossings especially in countries other than the US or if you\u2019re traveling to the US and not a US citizen.<\/p>\n Some prostaglandin<\/strong> preparations that are available do not require refrigeration. You should be aware that medications that do not require refrigeration should be stored in a cool place<\/strong>. Exposure to very hot temperatures can cause medications to lose effectiveness. <\/p>\n In particular lyophilized prostaglandin sold as Edex<\/strong> <\/a>and Caverject<\/strong> <\/a>does not require refrigeration. Non-refrigerated PGE1 preparation such as EDEX and Caverject is more expensive than PGE1 that requires refrigeration. EDEX and Caverject may be covered by some insurance plans.<\/p>\n Non-refrigerated Trimix<\/strong> is also available but in limited doses and is more expensive than Trimix that requires refrigeration. Trimix preparation that does not require refrigeration is not covered by insurance plans.<\/p>\n We typically order medications for ED (Trimix and PGE1) in small vials for our patients. We recommend keeping one vial of medication in the refrigerator and other vials in the freezer<\/strong> until needed. This allows you to avoid loss of medication potency over time by limiting the use of each vial to a few weeks or a month. <\/p>\n All custom compounded prostaglandin preparations of PGE1 require refrigeration.<\/strong> Commercially available preparations of PGE1 such as Edex and Caverject do not require refrigeration. The benefit of custom compounded prostaglandin E1<\/strong> is that it is significantly less costly than commercial preparations such as EDEX and Caverject. The cost of commercially available PGE1 that does not require refrigeration could be 10x higher per dose than of PGE1 that requires refrigeration. As a result, most men use prostaglandinE1 that requires refrigeration. <\/p>\n Most compounded preparations of Trimix require refrigeration. <\/strong> The only Trimix formulation that does not require refrigeration until use is available in only 2 concentrations which limits it to patients who do not require very high doses and concentrations of Trimix<\/p>\n Bimix<\/strong> <\/a>and QuadMix<\/strong> <\/a>are only available in preparations that require refrigeration.<\/p>\n At New York Urology Specialists, we offer our patients a choice of penile injections that require refrigeration and the ones that do not require refrigeration.<\/strong><\/p>\n At New York Urology Specialists, we offer specialized treatment for ED for men<\/strong>.
