The drug udenafil is marketed under the trade name Zydena. It is within the PDE<sub>5</sub> inhibitor class (which also includes avanafil, sildenafil, tadalafil, and vardenafil).

Udenafil's pharmacokinetics allows once-daily dosage (in addition to on-demand use). Typical doses are 100 and 200&nbsp;mg. Udenafil is available in Korea, Russia, and the Philippines. It has not yet been approved for use in the United States by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
