Sildenafil as a treatment for pulmonary hypertension.

W D Carroll1, R Dhillon.   

Abstract

Severe, chronic pulmonary hypertension in childhood is uncommon, difficult to treat, and carries a poor prognosis. Sildenafil (Viagra, Pfizer) has been used successfully in adults with pulmonary hypertension as monotherapy or in combination with inhaled prostacyclin. Here we report on its use in three children.
