Abstract:
Tadalafil is a drug from the phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (PDE-5) group, which is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and ED with LUTS in patients with BPH. The efficacy and safety of tadalafil were reviewed. The focus was on cardiovascular safety of tadalafil due to frequent cardiovascular comorbidities in patients with ED. We concluded that tadalafil is well tolerated and safe in patients with cardiovascular comorbidities and, in addition, has a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system.

Overview of the Cardiovascular System
Heart
The heart is the central pump of the cardiovascular system that circulates blood throughout the body. It comprises two atria receiving the blood and two ventricles pumping blood out of the heart. Their rhythmic contractions, called heartbeats, ensure that blood flow remains continuous.

Regulation of the Cardiovascular System
The regulation of the cardiovascular system involves the autonomic nervous system (ANS), baroreceptors, and chemoreceptors, ensuring that heart rate and blood pressure are appropriately modulated in response to varying physiological demands.
The ANS comprises two main divisions: the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. The sympathetic nervous system enhances...
Exercise and Cardiovascular Response
Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
