Methods and formulations for treating female sexual dysfunction are provided. A pharmaceutical composition formulated so as to contain a selected vasoactive agent is administered to the vagina, vulvar area or urethra of the individual undergoing treatment. Suitable vasoactive agents are vasodilators, including naturally occurring prostaglandins, synthetic prostaglandin derivatives, endothelial-derived relaxation factors, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide agonists, smooth muscle relaxants, leukotriene inhibitors, and others. The formulations are also useful for preventing the occurrence of yeast infections, improving vaginal muscle tone and tissue health, enhancing vaginal lubrication, and minimizing excess collagen deposition. A clitoral drug delivery device is also provided.

Co-administration of a prostaglandin and an androgenic agent in the treatment of female sexual dysfunction

Methods and formulations for minimizing excess collagen are provided. A pharmaceutical composition formulated so as to contain a selected vasoactive agent is administered to the vagina, vulvar area or urethra of the individual undergoing treatment. Suitable vasoactive agents are vasodilators, including naturally occurring prostaglandins, synthetic prostaglandin derivatives, endothelial-derived relaxation factors, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide agonists, smooth muscle relaxants, leukotriene inhibitors, and others.

Treatment of female sexual dysfunction using phosphodiesterase inhibitors

Treatment of female sexual dysfunction

A method for treating peripheral vascular disease (PVD), related vascular diseases, and vascular impotence associated with such diseases, is provided. The method involves transurethral administration of a pharmaceutical formulation containing a selected vasoactive agent within the context of an effective dosing regimen. Preferred vasoactive agents are vasodilating agents selected from the group consisting of naturally occurring prostaglandins, synthetic prostaglandin derivatives, and combinations thereof. The pharmaceutical formulations used in conjunction with the novel method may also contain enzyme inhibitors, transurethral permeation enhancers, carriers, preservatives, surfactants, and the like. Kits and pharmaceutical formulations are provided as well.

Transurethral administration of vasoactive agents to treat peripheral

Methods and formulations for treating female sexual dysfunction are provided. A pharmaceutical composition formulated so as to contain a selected vasodilating agent is administered to the vagina or vulvar area of the individual undergoing treatment. Suitable vasodilating agents include naturally occurring prostaglandins, synthetic prostaglandin derivatives, endothelial-derived relaxation factors, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide agonists, smooth muscle relaxants, leukotriene inhibitors, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, esters and inclusion complexes of any of the foregoing, and mixtures thereof. The novel formulations are also useful for preventing the occurrence of yeast infections, improving vaginal muscle tone and tissue health, enhancing vaginal lubrication, and minimizing excess collagen deposition. A clitoral drug delivery device is also provided.
