A new over-the-counter ED treatment has emerged, called Eroxon. Unlike Viagra, it is rubbed onto the head of the penis and requires no oral medication.
It works similarly to the Viagra Jelly family of medications, including sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis) and vardenafil (Levitra). But unlike those, it’s not an inhibitor of PDE5. Instead, it works by stimulating nerve endings.
How It Works
Men with erectile dysfunction can often find a variety of treatment options, including pills that can be taken orally. However, these pills can be difficult to tolerate for some men, and for others, especially those with certain heart conditions, they may not be safe to take.
A recent FDA approval opens up a new avenue for ED treatment: a gel that can be applied directly to the penis. The ointment, marketed as MED3000 or Eroxon, is available without prescription and combines physical stimulation with a unique mechanism of action. When rubbed onto the head of the penis, the volatile solvents in the medication evaporate quickly and stimulate nerve endings. This triggers a chemical reaction that releases nitric oxide, which in turn relaxes the muscles in the head of the penis, facilitating blood flow and creating an erection.
However, this ointment is not an alternative to oral ED medications, as it does not treat the underlying cause of the ED. It also has several serious warnings and safety information that should be reviewed carefully.
Many men with ED are looking for a quick and easy way to get an erection. They may even consider purchasing knockoff ED drugs from unlicensed pharmacies to get that result. However, these medications can be dangerous and are not worth the risk. Knockoff ED drugs are often found to contain contaminants, such as commercial paint and printer ink, which can be harmful or even toxic.
Side Effects
The side effects of Viagra are typically mild and short-lived. However, in some cases, they can be severe. If you experience serious side effects, contact your doctor right away.
A more common form of this medication is Kamagra, which is available as single-use packs of flavored oral jelly. This drug is marketed as a cheaper alternative to drugs like Viagra, but it does not meet the same safety standards. It may also contain a lower concentration of the active ingredient, or it could even contain something else that is dangerous to your health.
Another option is Eroxon StimGel, a topical gel that has been FDA-approved. This drug is not a PDE5 inhibitor, but it does physically cool and warm the head of the penis to stimulate nerve endings and encourage the release of nitric oxide that increases blood flow.
This medication is often prescribed along with other ED medications, so it is important to take the right dose of each. Super Kamagra pills are available in tablet form for those with erectile dysfunction issues who prefer to use pills. This will help ensure that you get the most out of your treatment. It is also important to eat a balanced diet, which can improve blood flow and reduce the chances of a recurrence of erectile dysfunction. It is also a good idea to drink plenty of water and avoid alcohol. You should also wear a condom during sexual intercourse.
Dosage
Unlike the ED ‘candy’ you can buy over the counter, Viagra contains a dose of sildenafil citrate that’s been carefully calibrated and approved by a medical professional. This ensures that it won’t interact dangerously with medications you take for heart conditions, high blood pressure, or other health issues such as nitrates.
The medication works by improving the way nerves in your penis communicate with the brain and relaxing the muscles around two cylinder-shaped chambers of spongy material along the bottom of your penis known as the corpora cavernosa. When the muscles relax, it allows blood to flow more easily into these areas, causing an erection that stays firm when sexual stimulation occurs.
You’ll start with a low trial dosage of 0.2 to 0.25 cc, which your doctor will increase slowly until you’re able to get a rigid erection that lasts for at least four hours. The maximum daily dosage is 100 mg.
Using a syringe, draw the prescribed amount of fluid from the ampule and inject it into your penis just below the head. During this process, make sure the needle doesn’t touch anything other than the alcohol-wiped stopper or the skin of your penis.
You should never purchase any ED medication from unlicensed online pharmacies. Many of these medications are counterfeit and contain contaminants like talcum powder, commercial paint, or printer ink that could be dangerous to your health.
Precautions
Medications like sildenafil need to be used at exactly the right dosage for them to produce their intended effects. Any other dose will result in side effects like priapism or even blurred vision, not to mention it could be dangerous to your health. It’s also important to remember that prescription drugs like Viagra must be stored at a certain temperature, or they may lose effectiveness over time. The best way to avoid any issues like this is to use a trusted telehealth provider and get your ED medication from an FDA-approved pharmacy.
Another important thing to keep in mind is that unlicensed ED medications are among the most counterfeited products on the market. Research suggests that up to 90 percent of PDE5 inhibitors sold online are counterfeit. And that’s a bad thing for consumers, as counterfeit pills can contain dangerous contaminants like talcum powder, commercial paint, and printer ink.
Luckily, there are several affordable erectile dysfunction treatments available today that are safe and effective. Whether you prefer a jelly-like version of Viagra (sildenafil citrate), Levitra (vardenafil), or the more recently introduced Stendra (avanafil), there’s an option out there that’s right for you.
