ICP for Erectile Dysfunction
Intracavernous Pharmacotherapy (ICP)
ICP is an abbreviation for “Intracorporeal Pharmacotherapy”. It is commonly referred to as “ED shots”, “penile injections” or “tri-mix”.
ICP employs a combination of prescription medications called vasodilators that include papaverine, phentolamine, atropine and Prostaglandine E1. When properly formulated by an experienced physician for your particular condition and correctly administered to the spongy tissue of the penis, ICP causes an increase in blood flow into the penile tissue and induces an erection within a few minutes. Such induced erections would feel full and natural. Thanks to an auto-applicator, the injection is surprisingly painless. The goal of ICP is to induce an erection that lasts approximately 30-60 minutes regardless of your mental status or the occurrence of ejaculation.
ICP is categorically the most effective form of treatment for ED. It has been used worldwide for the last 30 years with proven efficacy and safety records, and has remained the preferred option by many experts in the treatment of men’s sexual health and performance.
In fact, ICP has helped thousands of men restore their sexual function, particularly in the following situations:
- When ED pills don't work
- When ED pills cause side effects
- When ED pills may potentially worsen certain medical conditions, such as diabetes, hypertension, coronary artery disease
Choices of Treatment
ICP can be used on demand or, better yet, therapeutically as part of an ICP Program.
On demand: ICP ensures a strong and long-lasting erection for satisfactory sexual intercourse. Once the proper formula is established, it works consistently every time. For men who ejaculate sooner than they wish, an ICP-induced erection remains rigid after ejaculation until the medicine wears off.
ICP Program:
When ICP is used regularly, 2-3 times a week over a course of 12 months, men often report that their own spontaneous erections are getting stronger and more frequent. The degree of improvement depends on how long you have had ED, the severity of ED and other concurrent health issues, if any.
It is therefore advisable to complete at least 12-month Program in order to optimize the likelihood of improvement. Even when you notice an improvement during the course of treatment, it is important that you complete the full course of treatment.
Benefits of ICP
ICP provides the following benefits:
- Induced erections are reliable and predictable independent of meals, alcohol or any medications you may be taking
- Painless application using an auto-applicator
- Typical success rate of 98%, regardless of age or underlying health conditions
- No significant contraindications, except when you have a penile prosthesis or certain blood disorders such as leukemia, lymphoma etc.
- Because ICP is a localized treatment, it does not cause systemic side-effects, nor does it interfere with other concurrent medical treatments.
- It can potentially improve erectile function due to the improvement of blood flow and elasticity. Many patients have reported they no longer need to use ICP, or that they need it less often.
- Side benefit of improved ejaculatory control.
Side Effects
When ICP is properly administered, the side-effects are minimal and can be avoided. However, you need to be aware of the following potential issues before you begin ICP treatment:
- Prolonged erections (priapism) which must be promptly resolved in order to avoid any potential damage
- Localized scarring caused by repeated injection to the same area, Scarring may present as a localized thickening. If severe, it may cause penile deformity and render ICP ineffective. One needs to alternate the site of injection and apply firm pressure to the injection site for at least 2 minutes after every injection.
- Localized ache which tends to be short-lived and resolved after several applications.
- Localized bruising caused by accidental piercing of a superficial vein. A bruise is harmless and will go away in a few days.
- Infection, which can be avoided by using a new alcohol swab and syringe every time.
