vasodilating drugs like viagra effect nitric oxide. I once tried a 1/4 of a V for a headache i had for several days that wasnt easing up with other methods. it did relieve this headache. I have tried it since but its hit and miss. A bonus is u wont roll out of bed, lol. I think there is a connection between nitric oxide and vasodilation which may effect cerebral/brain perfusion?? But this is just a guess. Dr Jay Goldstein was big into some of these types of theories, try googling his name and nitric oxide.
cheers!!!
Actually viagra only effects the vasodilation mediated by nitric oxide not the level of nitric oxide itself. Nitric oxide works in many different roles throughout the body - in the immune system as inductible NO, in the endothelium which is what you are talking about and in the neuronal system as nNOS. There have been abnormalities found in POTS patients in any case to reductions or increases in eNOS and nNOS.
Blood supply through the brain.what is cerebral perfusion?
