From The Expert:
Trimix (a combination of alprostadil, phentolamine, and papaverine) is an injectable medication used to treat erectile dysfunction. It works by relaxing blood vessels in the penis, increasing blood flow and leading to an erection. A typical starting dose is often very small, and it’s adjusted by a healthcare provider to find the lowest effective amount. A key safety note is that if an erection lasts longer than four hours, seek immediate medical attention to prevent potential long-term damage. Common side effects can include mild pain or bruising at the injection site, and rarely, priapism (a prolonged erection). This medication should not be used if you have certain blood disorders or are taking specific other medications, so always discuss your full medical history with your doctor.
