Why wouldn’t doctors just use warfarin instead of Viagra? Warfarin is relatively cheap, commonly available and proven to prevent blood clots. I would suspect heparin would be administered first in the hospital to get rid of the clots and warfarin to prevent re-occurrence.

Yes, I think I got heparin and warfarin mixed up.

My original question was whether Viagra was being used to treat or prevent blood clotting problems encountered in some CV patients.
