Use of automatic insulin injector for intracorporeal injection in erectile dysfunction.
Intracorporeal injection of vasoactive drugs for the treatment of impotence may be problematic in patients with limited dexterity or psychogenic inhibitions of self-injection. Already in common use for diabetic patients is an easy-to-use automatic injector device, with rapid and simple loading and operating. This economical and handy gadget is adapted to accept standard disposable syringes. We have found it useful also for painless self-injection of intracorporeal vasoactive drugs for the treatment of erectile dysfunction.
