properties or antacid properties of proton pump inhibitors; for treating
Helicobacter pylori
and viral infections; for improving gastroprotective properties of H
2
receptor antagonists; for treating and/or preventing inflammations and microbial infections, multiple sclerosis, and viral infections; for treating or preventing restenosis, autoimmune diseases, pathological conditions resulting from abnormal cell proliferation, polycystic kidney disease, inflammatory diseases or to inhibit wound contraction; for treating or preventing sexual dysfunctions in males and females, for enhancing sexual responses in males and females; for treating or preventing benign prostatic hyperplasia, hypertension, congestive heart failure, variant (Printzmetal) angina, glaucoma, neurodegenerative disorders, vasospastic diseases, cognitive disorders, urge incontinence, and overactive bladder; for reversing the state of anesthesia; for treating or preventing diseases induced by the increased metabolism of cyclic guanosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cGMP); for treating respiratory disorders and for treating neurological conditions.
