Male sex drug keeping a woman alive

A woman suffering from rare Primary Pulmonary Hypertension [PPH] is making medical history after being chosen as one of only four women in the world to take Cialis, an ED drug commonly used to treat male impotence.

Encouraged by early results of Cialis, doctors are optimistic about her improving health conditions. Catherine Lee from Hull takes heavy doses of the erectile dysfunction treating drug which is similar to the dosage prescribed for 10 men. PPH is a one in a million disease and Cialis works on her because it is a vasodilator drug. It dilates the blood vessels in the lungs. Cialis which works on the same principle as Viagra lasts longer than any other ED drugs. In Catherine's case, Cialis relaxes arteries in her lungs which allow blood to be pumped through.
