Many men are afraid that Viagra / Cialis might be harmful to their heart. Dr. med. dr. phil. Stefan Buntrock, urologist from Göttingen, explains in this #short on UroChannel, that PDE-5 inhibitors are not dangerous to the heart. As a matter of fact, this class of drug was developed for cardiovascular indications. Because of unexpected side effects in terms of increased erectile functionality, Sildenafil was shifted away from cardiology to urology. But research has shown, that these drugs have a lot of benefits for heart patients. So within 10 to 15 years, Viagra will probably become one of the standard treatments for heart patients. For the time being, it is licensed for pulmonary hypertension. Contradindications concern mainly a simultaneous use together with nitrates. This must not be done since it may cause a fatal drop in blood pressure. Likewise, unselective alpha blockers should not combined with these drugs and a certain class of antiarrhythmic drugs. This means that Viagra / Cialis / Levitra / Stendra is safe for most men when it comes to the heart.
