“…11,12 Thus, we aimed to investigate the possible association of eNOS gene intron 4 VNTR, E298A and IVF 23 þ 10 G/T polymorphisms in particular, with the responsiveness to sildenafil treatment in patients with ED. We hypothesized that ED patients with eNOS gene polymorphisms respond less to sildenafil.…”

“…28 Although no study of sildenafil response in relationship to the 894 polymorphism is available in a Mexican population, the sildenafil response was decreased in German ED patients heterozygous for Relationship satisfaction in men with ED E Zonana Farca et al the 894 T polymorphism, with a gene dosage effect evident in homozygous patients. 29 Interestingly, Mexican populations reportedly have lower CYP3A4 activity, the major enzyme in the liver responsible for sildenafil metabolism. 30,31 A comparison of sildenafil pharmacokinetics in young, healthy, Mexican men with historical pharmacokinetic data from Caucasian men taking the same 100 mg dose of sildenafil showed twofold higher peak levels of sildenafil in the serum of Mexican men, although the drug half-life of about 4 h was similar in both the groups.…”
