PDE5 inhibitors are like the multitaskers of the medical world! Primarily known for treating erectile dysfunction, they also have a hand in managing pulmonary hypertension and can even aid with symptoms of lower urinary tract symptoms due to an enlarged prostate. The way they work is by relaxing blood vessels, which improves blood flow to various parts of the body. So, you could say these drugs not only help keep things up but also help bring high pressure down!
And here’s a little joke: Why did the PDE5 inhibitor go to therapy? It couldn’t handle all the pressure! 😄
