A Georgia jury has ordered an Atlanta men’s clinic to pay $9.25 million to a 53-year-old man who suffered permanent damage from an erectile dysfunction treatment. Following a six-day trial, jurors found that Boston Men’s Health Center Inc. was negligent for prescribing the plaintiff a drug called papaverine, an erectile dysfunction treatment no longer recommended by the Food and Drug Administration. The award includes $8.5 million in punitive damages for acting with intent to cause harm.
