How Can We Help?
Dr. Mulhall answers: Firstly, at 5 years the likelihood of your PD worsening is practically zero unless you re-injure your penis. There is no good evidence that Pentox is of significant benefit, although many experts use it because of some experimental (nonhuman) evidence that it has a beneficial effects on PD cells. In speaking with Dr. Tom Lue who introduced this idea, he uses it now for men with calcified plaques to reduce calcium in the plaque. I have stopped using Pentox except for the latter patients. Pentox is a safe medication and will not have an effect on your immune system. There is no data that vitamin D in combination is of any greater benefit.
