Sintesi
Vardenafil greatly potentiates the vasodilating effect of nitrates and can cause profound, potentially fatal hypotension. The risk persists for many hours after the PDE5 inhibitor dose.
Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici
Nitroglycerin and Vardenafil are not normally used together. Taking them at the same time is expected to cause harm or make one of them unsafe, so a different medicine is usually chosen for one of the two.
Nitroglycerin belongs to Cardiovascular; Vardenafil belongs to Genitourinary.
Perché avviene
PDE5 inhibition increases cGMP, amplifying nitric oxide-mediated vasodilation from nitroglycerin.
Cosa fare
Do not use nitrates in patients who have taken vardenafil within the previous 24 hours. In an emergency, use non-nitrate alternatives and give nitrates only under close hemodynamic monitoring after a safe interval.
