Transdermal and topical pharmacotherapy for male sexual dysfunction

Transdermal and topical pharmacotherapies have been used for the treatment of male sexual dysfunctions for some time and are well-accepted treatment modalities for these conditions. A Medline search was conducted for transdermal and topical medications, examining published literature over the past two decades. From this search a comprehensive review has been compiled of the available transdermal and topical treatment options for the treatment of male sexual dysfunctions, particularly erectile dysfunction, Peyronie's disease and hypogonadism. It is likely that the transdermal and topical drug armamentarium for sexual dysfunction, male and female, will grow over the next decade.
