Electrically assisted transdermal method and apparatus for the treatment of erectile dysfunction

摘要

A non-invasive method is provided for treating erectile dysfunction using electroporation enhanced with delivery of a vasoactive or androgenic composition applied to the penis which affords an alternative treatment for patients afflicted with erectile dysfunction (ED). Sufficient electric pulses temporarily create new pathways in the penile skin thereby driving a composition, such as a vasoactive or androgenic medication, into the corporal cavernosum.
