ABSTRACT

Sidenafil is an effective medicine which works for erectile dysfunction. From the very beginning, some anecdotal cases have been reported which suggested some kind of association between this medicine and coronary adverse effects. Several clinical essays have studied some of the negative effects from this drug in the cardiovascular system. Not even one research has reported an increment in the use of this medicine with coronary adverse effects. Princeton’s Consensus of Erectile Dysfunction and Cardiovascular Disease establishes the clinical guidance according to the real facts. It emphasize in the accurate patient’s stratification before starting or resuming sexual activity
