Could Botox be stiff competition for Viagra? New research has found injections of Botox into the penis provide “a clear benefit” for men suffering from erectile dysfunction. “As for the duration of benefit from the BoNT-A [Botox] injections, the above studies described a clear benefit within the first three months of treatment,” the study’s author stated.
Researchers believe the muscle relaxant, usually injected into the face, helped improve erections by relaxing the smooth muscle in the walls of blood vessels in the penis. The seven trials involved 362 men, with the participants having either Botox or a placebo injected at the base of their penis—effectiveness was measured using the “erection hardness scale,” which rates the stiffness and strength of the penis on a scale of zero to four. One trial showed that about half of participants improved their ranking on the scale, while a second trial showed 40% of impotent participants were successfully able to have sex at least three months after the treatment.
