ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a method for treating erectile dysfunctionality by injecting pharmacological agents into the corpora cavernosa of the penis. The present invention employs an improved method for injecting pharmacological agents into the corpora cavernosa of the penis which does not require a hypodermic needle and the attendant problems associated with the use of hypodermic needles to inject pharmacological agents into the penis and to provide a new treatment option to many patients with erectile dysfunctionality.
