As well as being a successful treatment for erectile dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension, Viagra may also be appropriate for the alleviation of heart symptoms which come with muscular dystrophy
The group behind the study tested Viagra on mice that were genetically engineered to suffer a condition similar to that of muscular dystrophy.
Viagra, manufactured by Pfizer was found to improve the functioning of the heart in these cases.
They said that the drug would not treat this muscular dystrophy sufficiently on its own but would provide a benefit if taken in conjunction with other treatments. They did not uncover how in fact Viagra improved the heart health in the mice but that their discoveries could be tried as a therapy for muscular dystrophy.
Sildenafil is marketed as Revatio when sold as a treatment for pulmonary hypertension and aids the flow of blood. It seems likely that more uses for sildenafil will be discovered in time.
