| | Patient Care - How to choose among the PDE5 inhibitors for erectile dysfunction |
 | | Clinicians who are uneasy about using PDE5 inhibitors in middle-aged men—since using these drugs precludes nitroglycerin administration—may consider other analgesics that may be appropriately substituted for a person with chest pain who has recently taken a PDE5 inhibitor. | | | Although all PDE5 inhibitors are effective for ED, it is anticipated that patients, even those who are basically satisfied with one PDE5 inhibitor, will want to try another, just to see if there is any experiential difference between them. | | | Phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitors are both efficacious and easy to use, so most cases of ED are no longer treated by the urologist: Approximately two thirds of prescriptions for sildenafil (Viagra) in 2002 were written by primary care physicians. |

| | With PDE5 inhibitors that have a duration of action of approximately 4 hours (Viagra and Levitra), the need to modify sexual patterns to take advantage of the drug's period of efficacy may be an obstacle to effective therapy and resumption of normal sexual activity. | | | In the event that a patient has taken a PDE5 inhibitor, experiences post sexual intercourse chest pain, and presents to an emergency department, this type of patient should be given an alternative to nitroglycerin until the chest pain resolves. | | | In 1999, the Princeton Consensus Panel, experts in cardiac health, developed management recommendations relating to cardiovascular risk assessment in patients with ED. |

| | Sexual Dysfunction in Men |
| | First line therapies include the use of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors sildenafil (Viagra), vardenafil (Levitra) and tadalafil (Cialis), and the use of androgen therapy, in particular DHEA, testosterone gels and testosterone patches, often in conjunction with the PDE5 inhibitor. | | | Evidence suggests that all 3 PDE5 inhibitors improve the quality of erections and enable successful intercourse in men with ED of all etiologies, even those with severe ED. | | | First, how do we choose among the 3 drugs? |

| | PDE5A - cGMP-specific 3',5'-cyclic phosphodiesterase |
| | For example, we have recently found that PDE5 is expressed in all Purkinje neurons while PDE1B is expressed in only a subset of these neurons. | | | Vessels were constricted (arginine vasopressin or U46619) and relaxed (bradykinin) before and after incubation with a PDE5 inhibitor, UK-343664. | | | CONCLUSIONS: Very high expression levels of PDE3A and PDE5A in human cavernous tissue underscore the physiological importance of these enzymes for the regulation of penile erection, emphasizing their therapeutical and pharmacological relevance. |

| | This results in smooth muscle relaxation and inflow of blood into the penile tissues, thereby producing an erection. | | | Patients who experience erections lasting 4 hours or more should be instructed to seek immediate medical assistance. | | | In addition, no effects were observed on visual acuity, electroretinograms, intraocular pressure, or pupillometry. |

| | Mode of action |
| | The levels of cGMP are therefore controlled by the activation of cyclic nucleotide cyclase and the breakdown by PDE5. | | | This means that cGMP is not hydrolysed as fast and this allows the smooth muscle to relax. | | | PDE5 is also found in lower concentrations in the platelets, vascular and visceral smooth muscle and skeletal muscle. |

| | The effect of PDE5 inhibition on patients with stable angina |
| | This report identifies new target for sexual dysfunction and also analyzes advances related to improved PDE5 inhibitors. | | | Vardenafil did not impair the ability of patients with coronary artery disease to exercise at levels equivalent or greater than that attained during sexual intercourse suggesting that vardenafil may be of use in treating patients with concomitant angina and erectile dysfunction. | | | Furthermore, in patients with coronary heart disease, coronary flow reserve and coronary artery endothelial function improved after the administration of sildenafil and PDE5 inhibitors may therefore be of use in improving the performance of angina patients. |

| | Data Sheet |
| | In vitro, vardenafil causes an elevation of cGMP in the isolated human corpus cavernosum resulting in muscle relaxation. | | | Based on experience with other PDE5 inhibitors, some patients may experience clinically significant hypotension if vardenafil and nitrates are coadministered and concomitant use is therefore contraindicated (see CONTRAINDICATIONS). | | | Agents for the treatment of erectile dysfunction should generally be used with caution in patients with anatomical deformation of the penis (such as angulation, cavernosal fibrosis or Peyronie's disease) or in patients who have conditions which may predispose them to priapism (such as sickle cell anaemia, multiple myeloma or leukaemia). |

| | Inhibiting PDE5 maintains concentrations of cGMP necessary for achieving and maintaining erections | | | As there have been infrequent reports of prolonged erections lasting more than 4 hours or priapism with all ED treatments in this drug class, patients should be advised to seek immediate medical attention should these occur. | | | Physicians should advise patients to stop use of PDE5 inhibitors, including Viagra, and seek medical attention in the event of sudden loss of vision. |

| | ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION DRUGS & MALE SEXUAL ENHANCEMENT |
| | Men who produce too little cyclic GMP and those who produce too much PDE5 have problems achieving and maintaining an erection. | | | All three drugs are known as ' PDE5-Inhibitors ' because they inhibit an enzyme called phosphodiesterase type-5 (PDE5) that can break down cyclic GMP, the substance produced during sexual arousal to cause the vascular and muscular changes leading to an erection. | | | It was approved by the U.S. FDA in March 1998 and enjoyed a virtual market monopoly until 2003 when the FDA approved two new drugs for impotence treatment: Levitra® (Vardenafil) in August and Cialis® (Tadalafil) in November. |

| | Targeting PDE5 for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension |
| | Targeting PDE5 for the treatment of pulmonary hypertension | | | Early clinical studies demonstrated that sildenafil was able to decrease mean pulmonary arterial pressure in patients with primary pulmonary hypertension alone and, furthermore it also increased the efficacy of iloprost, one of the few treatments in use. | | | These results further confirm the utility of PDE5 inhibitors as an oral treatment option for pulmonary hypertension and suggest that clinical trial of DA-8159 may be warranted in addition to studies in patients with erectile dysfunction which are currently underway. |

| | Viagara Technical Information |
| | Viagara™, an oral therapy for erectile dysfunction, is the citrate salt of sildenafil, a selective inhibitor of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-specific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). | | | This metabolite has a PDE selectivity profile similar to sildenafil and an in vitro potency for PDE5 approximately 50% of the parent drug. | | | Sildenafil has no direct relaxant effect on isolated human corpus cavernosum, but enhances the effect of nitric oxide (NO) by inhibiting phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), which is responsible for degradation of cGMP in the corpus cavernosum. |
