Summary of Clinical Use Click here for help
Aviptadil (by inhalation) has been granted EMA orphan designation for the treatment of sarcoidosis (2007) and acute lung injury (2006). In these indications its primary mechanism of action is suggested to be immunomodulation, decreasing the inflammatory function of lymphocytes and monocytes in the lung.
Invicorp (aviptadil + phentolamine) is authorised in some jurisdictions (e.g. Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden) as an injectable therapeutic for neurogenic, vasculogenic, psychogenic, or mixed aetiology erectile dysfunction, particularly where oral therapies (e.g. oral phosphodiesterase type-5 inhibitors) are ineffective.

SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19: In severe cases COVID-19 can lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Preclinical and clinical experience shows that aviptadil restores function in pulmonary hypertension, ARDS, and acute lung injury (ALI), reduces IL-6 and TNFα production, and protects against pulmonary edema. This combination of benefits has led to aviptadil being investigated as a treatment option for ARDS in COVID-19 patients.
