MONITOR: Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors may potentiate the blood pressure-lowering effect of antihypertensive medications or medications with hypotensive properties, including vasodilators. These agents inhibit PDE5-mediated degradation of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), which in vascular smooth muscles can lead to peripheral vasodilation and thus blood pressure (BP) reduction. For example, when sildenafil (100 mg) was coadministered with amlodipine (5 mg or 10 mg) to hypertensive patients, the mean additional reduction in supine BP was 8/7 mmHg. Likewise, in a group of patients whose hypertension was controlled with nifedipine slow-release (30 mg or 60 mg) once daily, the addition of vardenafil (20 mg) produced a mean additional supine BP reduction of 6/5 mmHg compared to placebo. When coadministered with amlodipine (5 mg) daily or enalapril (20 mg) daily, a single dose of avanafil (200 mg) produced a mean maximum decrease in supine systolic BP of 1.2 mmHg (amlodipine) and supine BP of 1.8/3.5 mmHg (enalapril) compared to placebo.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if PDE5 inhibitors are prescribed in combination with antihypertensive agents or agents with hypotensive properties. Patients receiving the combination should be advised to avoid rising abruptly from a sitting or recumbent position, especially following treatment initiation or a dosage increase, and to contact their doctor if they experience symptoms of hypotension such as dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, or tachycardia.
Drug and food interactions
sildenafil food
Applies to: sildenafil
If you are receiving therapy with sildenafil you should avoid the regular consumption of large amounts of grapefruits and grapefruit juice. Grapefruit can raise the levels of sildenafil in your body and delay the time it takes for the medication to work. Do not increase or decrease the amount of grapefruit products in your diet without first talking to your doctor.
