Detane

This formulation may contain some of the following ingredients: Benzocaine, Carbomer, Polyethylene Glycol.

The local anesthetic Benzocaine is reported to have a wide variety of undesirable effects. This numbing agent may even cause allergic reactions, hive-like swelling, or stinging for some. Benzocaine is also reportedly linked to the development of Methemoglobinemia, a potentially serious blood condition.

In addition, Benzocaine may lead to adverse events on sexual activity. One reputable sex study Website states, “Unfortunately, a small percentage of men become so "numbed" that they lose their erection.” Some consumers have even reported long-term sexual side effects associated with numbing agents. One consumer writes, “I used a condom with Benzocaine in April of 2003 and since then, I am not able to feel the sensation of an ejaculation. To this day, I cannot feel an orgasm.”

An additional concern regarding numbing agents is that they may also desensitize a female partner. It is our opinion that a sexual experience that is long lasting, but devoid of sensation is not what anyone is looking for. Perhaps it would be wise for consumers to step back and remember why people often have sex in the first place: because it feels good. While we consider it admirable for a man to want to delay his pleasure for his partner’s sake, we fear that numbing agents may ultimately compromise the sensation felt by both partners. We feel that there are currently more sophisticated approaches to sexual endurance that do not resort to such outmoded methods.

• Numbness is said to be temporary
• Claims to work within minutes

• Numbing agents may cause a loss of erection
• May cause desensitization in sexual partner
• Some consumers have reported ongoing numbness
• Return policy seems to require unopened package

In the end, we feel that sex without sensation is not very good sex. There are many boring or unpleasant situations in life that tend to last a long time; sex does not need to become one of them.

Today’s most advanced sexual enhancement products tend to address the sexual experience form a multifaceted approach. These formulations utilize next-generation ingredients like Yohimbe, Panax Ginseng, Tribulus Terrestris, and Epimedium. These herbal components serve to enhance penile blood flow, sexual endurance, heightened desire, and intensity of orgasm.

Finally, we believe that consumers deserve to purchase a sexual enhancement product that is backed by the assurance of a money back guarantee. With the knowledge that they will not be forced to absorb the cost of an inferior product, consumers can buy with confidence. Consumers might be wise to seek out manufacturers whose money-back guarantees are not contingent on the product remaining unopened.
