Discovery on Day 1: Sildenafil

First, it was developed for some heart disease.

Then it was found to be more of use for ED. Hence the sole indication for now.

Today, I heard that a patient uses it to lower BP... effectively.


Case-report: He was on antihypertensives combo but despite that, his BP readings spikes. Then he found that by taking 6.25mg (a quarter of a tab) of sildenafil and his BP dropped 10 mmHg after just 2 hours (talk about fast onset of action).
