The use of prostaglandins for diagnosis and treatment of erectile impotence
Acta Urol Belg.
1991.
Abstract
The authors present their experience in using PGE-1 for the assessment of 77 impotent patients. This drug can be safely used as a screening test for vasculogenic impotence but is also useful in more invasive diagnostic tests. PGE-1 is probably the only natural product that can be used commonly for the treatment of erectile impotence, because it is a safe and effective drug.
