Jiří Slíva
Ústav farmakologie, 3. LF UK, Praha

Erectile dysfunction is characterised by a high prevalence. As part of pharmacotherapy, substances that induce reversible inhibition of phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE-5) have been used for a quarter century. Such an inhibition results in a significantly better filling of the cavernous bodies. A typical representative of this group of drugs is sildenafil. In addition to the classic tablet form, it can be used in the form of an orally dispersible film.

Keywords: erectile dysfunction, phosphodiesterase 5, PDE-5, cGMP, ODF, film - dosage form.
