[Efficacy of Vitaprost Forte in the treatment of adenoma]
Abstract:
Pharmacotherapy with vitaprost forte was given to 40 patients with prostatic adenoma aged 55 to 77 years (mean age 67.6 +/- 0.9 years). Vitaprost forte suppositories were used once a day in the evening for 30 days. Micturition was assessed before the treatment, on the treatment day 15 and 30, 1 and 3 months after the treatment course. As the result of the treatment obstructive and irritative symptoms improved by 20%, on the average, Q(max) increased by 36.4%, residual urine decreased more than 3-fold. Therapeutic effects continued for 3 months and later. IPSS and other questionnaires indicated positive effects in quality of life.

Treatment for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: Prostacyclin Receptor Agonists
These agonists bind to the IPR receptor situated on the plasma membrane of the pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells. This binding triggers a cascade of reactions known as the GS-AC-cAMP-PKA pathway. This pathway results in the relaxation of smooth muscle...

Adrenergic Agonists: Therapeutic Uses
Emergency and Intensive Care Unit (ICU) applications: Pressor agents increase blood pressure, heart rate, and contractility in shock and organ failure situations. Dopamine can induce vasodilation and stimulate adrenoceptors. Endogenous catecholamines are effective in treating cardiogenic shock. α2-agonists like clonidine can reverse anesthesia-induced hypertension.
