The FDA said companies have until May 22 to stop selling compounded versions of the drugs and stated that it could take legal action against companies that have sold unsafe copies of the drugs

Concurrently, this phenomenon induces a spreading depression of electrocorticographic activity, an increase in metabolic demand, and substantial disturbances in ionic homeostasis ( A key mechanism underlying the propagation of CSDs involves the passive diffusion of extracellular K + and glutamate, which induces depolarization within the cortical grey matter ( 2+ channels, and other voltage-gated channels, exacerbates glutamate release and K + -efflux, thereby sustaining the waves of depolarization ( -amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors, leading to excessive neuronal excitation and eventual cell death ( CSDs can also propagate into brain regions initially unaffected by the triggering event, inducing a loss of spontaneous and evoked activity in neighboring neural networks, a phenomenon referred to as spreading depression ( In patients with aSAH, CSDs contribute to dynamic alterations in cerebral blood flow
Can induce spontaneous erections as a side effect
While its common to compare the two procedures, they are quite different in terms of purpose, technique, and recovery experience
