Kindly let me know whether Topiglan cream (which can be used in the treatment of erectile disfunction) is available over-the-counter in India or if it requires a prescription to purchase this medication? ## Is Topiglan available in Europe too? ## Topiglan (Alprostadil) is a drug used in the treatment of erectile dysfunction. It is sold in the United States as urethral suppositories and in an inj. form. The suppositories are sold under the brand name MUSE (Medicated Urethral Suppository for Erection). The inj. forms are Edex and Caverject. From what I could gather this drug is not sold in other countries except U.S. and Canada. However I am sure there are other equivalent medications for the same treatment. This would be a good question to ask your local pharmacy - whether or not they ca...

After radical prostate surgery the only thing that has worked was caverject .... only trialed twice... no pills have been any good. Thinking of going to Philippines to get married and live there.... so the question is please: Is caverject available in Philippines.. if so could you please advise which cities doctors etc. ## I am a 65 year old male who has been looking for alprostadil in the Philippines. So far no luck. It is not carried by Mercury, the largest drug store chain in the Philippines. It is approved for use here, but getting it is a problem. ## How & where can i buy vitaros cream (alprostadil cream) in the Philippines? ## It's available in angeles (the injectable version)... What I'm interested though is the cream type, is it available in the Philippines? If so, w...

I have Caverject 20mcg Dual Chamber. I want to use half and save the rest for another occasion. After administering it once, can I inj. the rest of the solution from the same syringe? ## I used half of the Caverject (10mcg) on one occasion, then was able to reset the syringe to 20mcg and use the other half. ## It would be best to use the dosage as prescribed by your doctor. Caverject is used to treat erectile dysfunction, it contains the active ingredient Alprostadil. Trying to reuse the same syringe can create a risk of infection, and it could disrupt your actually receiving the proper dosage. What amount did your doctor tell you to use?
