Viagra helps save nurse in a Covid coma.

Could Viagra be a Swiss Army knife of drugs, helping to cure lethal diseases such as Covid, Alzheimer’s and cancer, as well as bringing its more famous sexual benefit?
The medication’s manifold potential was highlighted this week when a respiratory nurse who had spent 28 days in a Covid coma came round after doctors gave her a large dose of the drug as part of an experimental treatment regimen.
Monica Almeida, 37, a double-jabbed asthmatic mother-of-two from Lincolnshire, says the drug boosted the blood flow around her body by relaxing the walls of blood vessels, which helped open up the air sacs in her lungs.
It’s the first time the drug has been used on a Covid patient in the UK.

Pfizer continues to clean up with COVID

It was originally developed to help with hypertension(high blood pressure). Heart disease is a big factor in hospital admission and severity of COVID.
It’s not that far fetched that it could have helped a C-19 person.

This will be stopped because Pfizer no longer has the patent on it. Hahaha.
Really wouldn’t surprise me if it worked like this. Those boner pills are used for things like scleroderma to help with blood flow.

Sounds like "a blue pill a day will keep the doctor away".

It is my opinion that going on a ventilator is so inherently medically fricked that any number of drugs can kickstart a person's system to get them off of it.

I read one paper that looked at viagra for malaria patients. They were interested nitric oxide and how it would effect outcomes.

Serious question. Doesn't aspirin do the same thing? It thins your blood so I would imagine that helps blood flow.

No, Viagra isn’t a blood thinner. It dilates blood vessels to allow more blood flow. When blood vessels dilate, blood pressure drops.

Pulmonary hypertension, not hypertension per se. Cilostazol, a PDE-3 inhibitor which also disrupts platelet aggregation, also showed some ability to help fight COVID.

Not good; need to stop immediately.
No off-label Covid treatments allowed.

I wonder if her husband fells undersized now. Now that his wife has a bigger unit than him.

If your Covid symptoms are gone for longer than 4 hours, please seek medical attention.

This reminds me of an old joke.
After a terrible accident a woman remains hospitalized in a coma. Weeks pass and the husband begins to despair of his wife ever returning.
He talks to everyone. Finally desperate beyond words he asks her doctor "Isn't there anything that we can do?" "No," she replied "Nothing that I can do as a doctor. But perhaps something you can do as a husband."
"Anything," he replied "but what do you mean?"
"Well," she replied in a matter of fact tone "perhaps she will wake up with oral sex?"
"If you think so," he seemed uncertain "But we would need privacy"
The doctor assured him they would have privacy and the husband goes into her hospital room alone. Minutes pass. Then the EKG began to speed up, speed up some more, and then nothing, it flatlined.
The doctor ran into the room. "What happened?"
"I think she choked"

No. Changing the viscosity of a fluid (which isn’t really what aspirin does, but it’s probably the best way to explain it based on your question) isn’t anything like changing the diameter of the conduit in mechanism. They both can affect flow rate. But they do not accomplish it in a similar way.
