Bimix is a combination of two vasodilators, papaverine and phentolamine. These two medications when injected directly into the penis can increase the strength and duration of erections.
Bimix is a proven and effective treatment option for men who suffer from erectile dysfunction. Bimix injections may also be prescribed in conjunction with other ED treatments.
Bimix works very similarly to other ICI therapies but for men who experience penile pain from Trimix injections, Bimix is a great alternative. Injections are one of the most effective forms of ED treatment: up to 92% of patients find injection therapy effective. According to a 2017 study, Bimix formulations were found to be 94% effective in men with erectile dysfunction.1

A common practice, off-label prescribing is when a doctor prescribes a drug for a different condition or at a different dosage than the FDA has approved. For Bimix, there are a few conditions prescribed off-label. Always consult your physician before beginning a new treatment or modifying your existing treatment.
Bimix is often recommended for men suffering from more advanced erectile dysfunction or who have other comorbidities impacting their ED.
Bimix may be prescribed for men who have just had a radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. Injection Therapy is commonly used to aid in the recovery process.
Bimix is not typically used more than 3-4 uses during a single week unless directed by your physician.
All vials, whether punctured or sealed, must be refrigerated. Bimix multi-use vials can be used to 28-days after first puncture. Do not freeze.
