Edex Information:

• What

What is Edex?

Edex contains a synthetic form of a substance that naturally occurs in the body called prostaglandins. One of the effects of prostaglandins is vasodilation, or the widening of blood vessels. When the blood vessels in the penis are widened, an erection can be more easily achieved. Edex is a more natural alternative to the typical erectile dysfunction medications called PDE5 inhibitors which can have dangerous cardiovascular side effects.

• How

How do I take Edex?

Edex comes in the form of a solution that is to be injected into the penis. An injection device is normally provided. Your doctor and pharmacist will tell you how to properly use this medication. Your doctor will most likely you show you the first time and have you stay in the doctor’s office to make sure you have no negative reactions to the medication, and to make sure the proper dose is prescribed. An erection should occur approximately five to twenty minutes after the injection and should last from thirty to sixty minutes. Do not use Edex more than three times weekly, and wait at least 24 hours between uses.
