What is Sildenafil?

Sildenafil is used in dogs and cats with heart and/or lung problems that cause increased blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs. Sildenafil has been shown to improve energy, exercise tolerance, and overall quality of life in animals with pulmonary hypertension. It is sold per tablet and requires a prescription from your veterinarian.

For:

Dogs and Cats

Benefits:

  • Helps treat symptoms of heart and/or lung problems
  • Shown to improve energy, exercise tolerance, and overall quality of life in animals with pulmonary hypertension
  • Sold per tablet

How does Sildenafil work?

Pulmonary hypertension refers to abnormally high blood pressure in the arteries of the lungs that forces the right side of the heart to work harder than normal. Sildenafil causes the smooth muscle surrounding small blood vessels in the lungs to relax, decreasing the workload on the heart.

Cautions:

Keep this and all medication out of reach of children. This drug should only be given to the pet for which it was prescribed. Do not give this medication to a person. Sildenafil should not be used in pets that are experiencing low blood pressure, shock, blood or fluid loss, or certain heart or lung problems that will not be improved by this medication.
