A stability-indicating HPLC-UV method for the simultaneous determination of sildenafil citrate and dapoxetine hydrochloride in solution and tablet was developed. The mobile phase was comprised of acetonitrile and 0.2M ammonium acetate buffer. The analyte was eluted at 3.392min and 7.255min for sildenafil citrate and dapoxetine HCl respectively using gradient system at a flow rate of 1.5mL/min. The theoretical plates count was>2000, tailing factor <.30, capacity factor 3.19-7.58 and peak asymmetry factor <.08.The method was linear from 5-180 and 1-40μg/mL with a correlation coefficient of 0.9999 and 0.9994 for sildenafil citrate and dapoxetine HCl respectively. The drug solution was stable at ambient room temperature (26˚C) for 48hours.Both drugs were found susceptible to oxidation and the drug content dropped slightly in acid and alkali condition but stable under UV light and heat. No interference from tablet excipients and degradation products was found.

Sildenafil is used to treat erectile dysfunction and pulmonary arterial hypertension but is often illicitly added to energy drinks and chocolates. This study introduces a lateral flow strip test using aptamers specific to sildenafil for detecting its illegal presence in food. The process involved using graphene oxide SELEX to identify high-affinity aptamers, which were then converted into molecular gate structures on mesoporous silica nanoparticles, creating a unique signaling system.

Background: Previous studies had shown that the neutrophils/lymphocytes (NLR) and platelets/lymphocytes (PLR) ratios could be used as markers of inflammatory load as well as prognostic factors in several medical conditions. The current study aimed to compare the effect of using daily tadalafil 5 mg/day versus daily sildenafil 25 mg/day in improving erectile function as well as their ability to reduce NLR and PLR.
Methods: One hundred and four participants were recruited.

Background And Aims: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune connective disease characterised by excessive extracellular matrix deposition and widespread skin and internal organ fibrosis including various cardiac manifestations. Heart involvement is one of the leading causes of death among patients with SSc. In this study, we aimed to assess the effect of various vasodilator treatments.

Article Synopsis
- A newly optimized compound showed potent inhibition of PDE5A with an impressive selectivity over other PDE enzymes, indicating strong potential as a treatment option.
- In animal studies, the compound outperformed sildenafil in reducing mean pulmonary artery pressure and right ventricle hypertrophy, suggesting it could be a promising new therapy for PAH.
