Resumo

Combining riociguat with PDE5 inhibitors such as sildenafil causes additive systemic vasodilation and can lead to hypotension. In a pulmonary arterial hypertension study, adding riociguat to sildenafil showed no favorable benefit and was associated with unfavorable outcomes including more deaths. Riociguat labeling contraindicates concomitant PDE5 inhibitors.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Riociguat and Sildenafil 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.

Riociguat belongs to Cardiovascular; Sildenafil belongs to Genitourinary.

Nível de evidência: High

Por que acontece

Riociguat stimulates soluble guanylate cyclase to raise cGMP, and sildenafil blocks cGMP degradation via PDE5, so the effects on the nitric oxide-cGMP pathway are additive.

O que fazer

Do not use the two together. When switching, stop sildenafil at least 24 hours before starting riociguat, and consider specialist guidance on the transition.
