Drug-drug interaction:Organic nitrate and Sildenafil (Viagra) • SILDENAFIL inhibits phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) which is responsible for the metabolic degradation of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). • Organic nitrates exert their action by activation of guanylate cyclase, which increases cGMP. Because of the potential for excessive hypotensive effects as a result of increased cGMP, the concomitant use of sildenafil and organic nitrates is contraindicated
