   Viagra and Pancreatitis, any connection (side effects (Digestive Disorders board)

11th January 2008
I have chronic pancreatitis and I need to know if Viagra will make my condition worse or if it may trigger an onset

Does anybody know if Viagra falls into any of these categories:

# Drugs definitely associated with acute pancreatitis include azathioprine, sulfonamides, sulindac, tetracycline, valproic acid, didanosine, methyldopa, estrogens, furosemide, 6-mercaptopurine, pentamidine, 5-aminosalicylic acid compounds, corticosteroids, and octreotide.

# Drugs probably associated with acute pancreatitis include chlorothiazide and hydrochlorothiazide, methandienone, metronidazole, nitrofurantoin, phenformin, piroxicam, procainamide, colaspase, chlorthalidone, combination cancer chemotherapy drugs (especially asparaginase), cimetidine, cisplatin, cytosine arabinoside, diphenoxylate, and ethacrynic acid.

Bobdobbs44, I do not know the answer to that. Maybe your pharmacist can. Can you tell me what are your symptoms with Chronic Pancreatitis? I am having upper stomach pain for a year now but all my tests are negative. It happens anywhere from 1 -3 hours after I eat. Now I try to fast most of the day. I can tolerate liquids.
Thanks for any help
