Hemodynamic effect of avanafil and glyceryl trinitrate coadministration.

ABSTRACT: A Phase I, double-blind, randomized, crossover study in healthy males (N=106) was conducted between March 21, 2004, and May 17, 2004, to determine the magnitude and duration of the hemodynamic interaction of avanafil (a phosphodiesterase type-5 inhibitor for treating males with erectile dysfunction) when coadministered with glyceryl trinitrate (NTG) compared with sildenafil and placebo.
