Sildenafil (Viagra) is a great drug that has already helped millions of men with their erectile dysfunction. This miracle pill can also help treat some diseases that may cause erectile dysfunction such as pulmonary hypertension or more commonly known as low blood pressure.
Sildenafil or Viagra works by releasing nitric oxide into the blood stream relaxing the smooth muscle in the penis. Once the smooth muscle is relaxed, the corpus caverosum (two cigar shaped tubes in the shaft of the penis) un-constricts and allows the proper amount of blood to enter in order for an erection to occur.
Erectile dysfunction can be caused by many different medical conditions including diabetes, high blood pressure, low blood pressure, alcoholism, and high cholesterol. But is it also true that Viagra can help treat some of these disorders?
Viagra’s main use is to treat erectile dysfunction in males; recent studies show that Viagra can treat high blood pressure. It has been tested on several many and has shown that it can very well be affective.
Hypertension is when the blood pressure is chronically elevated; hypertension is the cause of many heart attacks, strokes, and heart failure. So how can Viagra help? One of the side effects of sildenafil is the lowering of the blood pressure; sildenafil will weaken the strengthened heart beat caused by stress, this in turn lessens the excess amount of blood and force used to pump it to the body.
Studies have also shown that Viagra has no effect on the heart, only when the heart is pumping harder and is under more stress than usual.
Some doctors will prescribe Viagra to treat men with pulmonary hypertension as well as for erectile dysfunction.
Another type of erectile dysfunction pill is Cialis; Cialis is used in the same way as Viagra and works in a very similar way. It releases nitric oxide into the penis, causes the smooth muscle relax and allows blood to enter the vessels in the penis causing an erection.
Both Viagra and Cialis have been studied for their effect on pulmonary hypertension. Both pills are a natural blood pressure reducer and also un constricts blood vessels. Before starting either pill you should tell your doctor about your medical history, and what medications you may be taking.
Viagra is not a cure for pulmonary hypertension but is simply a treatment to manage the symptoms.
For those men with LOW blood pressure, Viagra should not be taken, if taken, Viagra could lower you blood pressure to a dangerous level causing fainting, dizziness, lightheadedness, and even a stroke.
As with any medication, sildenafil has certain side effects and risk factors, it is important to be aware of these and to decide if the benefits outweigh the risk for you personally. Viagra treats million of men today that suffer from erectile dysfunction and may be able to treat even more men suffering from pulmonary hypertension.
