    Medications for Treatment of Congenital Heart Disease (CHD)​


    Children with heart disease, whether the disease is present at birth (congenital) or acquired later, are often treated with medication. The medications listed below are ones that are commonly prescribed to children who are heart disease patients.



    Diuretics​

    Diuretics are often prescribed to lower blood pressure to reduce fluid in the blood vessels, body tissues and lungs. They cause your body to get rid of salt and water through increased urination. They are used in some children with extra fluid in their lungs; high blood pressure; or swelling of their hands, feet, eyes or face.
    Common examples:

    • bumetanide (Bumex)
    • chlorothiazide (Diuril)
    • furosemide (Lasix)
    • hydrochlorothiazide (Esidrix, Hydrodiuril)
    • spironolactone (Aldactone)

    Sildenafil

    Sildenafil is a medication used to treat elevated pressure in the lung arteries (pulmonary arterial hypertension). It helps to relax the blood vessels in the lungs. This medication can be used for erectile dysfunction, and its trade name is Viagra. When used to treat pulmonary hypertension, the trade name is Revatio.

    < Sildenafil

    Sildenafil is a medication used to treat elevated pressure in the lung arteries (pulmonary arterial hypertension). It helps to relax the blood vessels in the lungs. This medication can be used for erectile dysfunction, and its trade name is Viagra. When used to treat pulmonary hypertension, the trade name is Revatio.>

    Note : This was due to the FDA approvals. FDA first approved Viagra to treat for impotency in 1998.

    Revatio initailly got the approval in Oral form in 2005 and later in 2009 in IV form. Revatio was the only FDA-approved phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitor available in both tablet and intravenous formulations. Approval for Revatio is to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

    Viagra and Revatio both contain the same active ingredient: Sildenafil. They’re both sold by the same company: Pfizer. The biggest differences between these two medications are the dosage in which they’re sold and the purpose for which each drug is prescribed.

    PS: Alternate names for Viagra - "Mycoxafailin", "FixaDix" :P
