Sildenafil is widely used in the treatment of
male erectile disorder
and is generally well-tolerated. Its adverse effects are reported to be mild and include flushing, headache, dyspepsia and visual disturbances. We document a case of recurrent
haemoptysis
observed soon after self administration of sildenafil in a 38-year-old male with no other causative factors. The episodes of
haemoptysis
stopped following stoppage of sildenafil.

Sildenafil, usually a well-tolerated drug traditionally used for
erectile dysfunction
(ED), was recently approved for pulmonary arterial hypertension. In the literature, there are few cases of
hemoptysis
following sildenafil use for ED; however, to our knowledge, we are reporting the first case of
hemoptysis
following sildenafil use for pulmonary hypertension. We are documenting a case of a 90-year-old male patient who was admitted to the intensive care unit with
hemoptysis
and respiratory failure two weeks after he was started on sildenafil.
