Got a curve in your cock?
A new drug on the market is being used off label to straighten penises that have become permanently bent.
Xiaflex has been approved for use on hands, but the company producing it has warned customers against off label uses.
“I’m sure there will be pressure [on urologists] to use it off-label, they have been aware of the trials for this drug and certainly have a cohort of patients waiting,” Dr. Robert Davis, professor of urology at the University of Rochester, told ABC.
“It is an invasive procedure with potential bad side effects [such as] impotence [or] penile fracture. I don’t think too many urologists will do off-label use until FDA approval for use in Peyronie’s Disease,” said Dr. Tom Lue, professor of urology at the University of California, San Francisco.
