Gabapentin in the management of the recurrent, refractory, idiopathic priapism"

Recurrent idiopathic priapism is a difficult problem to treat and a true emergency for the physicians, and often even invasive therapeutic interventions fail. We recently managed three men


with refractory idiopathic priapism with oral gabapentin. They responded to treatment within 48 h. Two men continue not to experience prolonged erections while treated with lower doses of


gabapentin for 16 and 24 months, respectively. The third, after a successful treatment for 6 months, stopped gabapentin and priapism recurred. He responded to treatment again and continues


to be free of episodes for 9 months. Gabapentin may be a safe alternative for the management of refractory idiopathic priapism.
