Pharmacodynamics

Expansion of the cavernous arteries and vessels of the trabecular smooth muscle corpus cavernosum leads to rapid blood flow and dilation of lacunar spaces in the cavernous bodies; since expanded corporal sinusoids are compressed tunica, venous outflow through the vessels located under the tunica, difficult and develops an erection (the so-called "corporal venookklyuzionny mechanism"). It has systemic effects: vasodilatory, antiagregatsionnym stimulates the smooth muscles of the intestines and alvus.

Part of the administered dose enters the cavernous body (via collateral vessels), the remainder - in the venous network of the perineum; caught in the central venous circulation drug almost completely eliminated from the systemic circulation of the lungs; T1 / 2 is 0.5-10 minutes. The injection site, mainly in the lung (60-90%) is rapidly metabolised to form various derivatives of PG E1.
