    Abstract:
    Prolonged erection and priapism are common complications following intracavernosal injection of vasoactive agents in the management of erectile dysfunction. It is usually treated by intracorporeal drainage and irrigation with sympathomimetic agents. There is no established oral therapy . To study the effect of oral terbutaline on prolonged erection following intracavernosal injection of vasoactive agent, a controlled randomized study was done in 68 patients. Detumescence was achieved in 42 and 15% of the cases with oral terbutaline and placebo, respectively. Results of this study suggest that an initial trial with oral terbutaline for pharmacologically induced prolonged erection may be successful.
