I too have experienced several hours of discomfort following Trimix use. It got worse when I changed from Trimix #8 to #9. It is known that the Alprostadil component of the mixture can cause achiness in 20% of men. Alternatives are low-Alprostadil Trimix and Bimix. I am awaiting a prescription from my urologist for one of these alternative compounds, so I cannot yet speak to their effectiveness.

Contacted my compounding pharmacy regarding the discomfort experienced from the last trimix I had purchased, the pharmacist suggested a lower mix of the Alprostadil. Since the last version had 50 mcg and they offer a version with 25 mcg vs the initial mix that had a 6 mcg that was not as effective. At this point it's all about finding the right trimix formula that delivers the desired results with less side effects. the link to the trimix article was very informative as it allowed me to better communicate with the pharmacist on the formula concentrations, as at least this pharmacy does not use a numbers scheme #8 vs. #9 etc.
