Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
Claims 
     
         1.  A method of treating a human being having or suspected of having a sexual dysfunction or a disorder of physiological and/or anatomical response to sexual stimulation, comprising: 
       
         administering to a human being having or suspected of having a sexual dysfunction or a disorder of physiological and/or anatomical response to sexual stimulation a purine and a nitric oxide donor agent, wherein said human being is not administered adenosine and linsidomine in combination. 
       
     
     
         2.  The method of  claim 1 , wherein said nitric oxide donor agent contains no linsidomine. 
     
     
         3.  The method of  claim 1 , wherein said purine contains no adenosine. 
     
     
         4.  The method of  claim 1 , wherein said purine is at least one member selected from the group consisting of adenine, adenosine, AMP, ADP and ATP. 
     
     
         5.  The method of  claim 4 , wherein said purine is adenosine and said nitric oxide donor agent contains no linsidomine.

         16.  The method of  claim 1 , wherein said purine is AMP and said AMP is present in an amount of 30 to 150 mg per one or two doses. 
     
     
         17.  The method of  claim 1 , wherein said purine is AMP and said AMP is present in an amount of 50 to 100 mg per one or two doses. 
     
     
         18.  The method of  claim 1 , wherein said purine is AMP or ATP. 
     
     
         19.  The method of  claim 1 , wherein said purine is AMP or ATP and said nitric oxide donor agent is arginine. 
     
     
         20.  The method of  claim 1 , wherein said purine and said nitric oxide donor agent are a single compound having both purine and nitric oxide donor agent activities. 
     
     
         21.  The method of  claim 1 , wherein said human being is a man. 
     
     
         22.  The method of  claim 1 , wherein said human being is a woman. 
     
     
         23.  A method of at least one of enhancing sexual desire, enhancing sexual pleasure, increasing sexual capacity and increasing sexual stimulation in human beings, comprising: 
       
         administering to a human being not suffering from a sexual dysfunction a purine and a nitric oxide donor agent, wherein said human being desires to enhance his or her sexual desire and/or sexual pleasure by administration of said purine and said nitric oxide donor agent, and wherein said human being is not administered adenosine and linsidomine in combination.
