The present invention discloses the use of nicorandil in treatment of male impotency and female sexual dysfunction. Nitric ester of N-(2-hydroxyethyl) nicotinamide or nicorandil, as it is better known is known as a drug for treatment of circulatory diseases. It is a pyridine derivative. Several clinical tests performed on male patients suffering from impotency including severe penile erectile dysfunction or female patients suffering from female sexual arousal dysfunction consistently showed excellent results.
