[Use of naftidrofuryl in angiology]
Abstract:
The review analyses the role of serotonin in the development of pathological processes in angiological patients, showing its negative role in aggravating chronic and acute ischaemia of various organs (brain, myocardium, extremities) both at the expense of vasoconstriction and due to an increase in blood platelet aggregation of blood platelets and erythrocytes, followed by analysis of clinical efficacy of naftidrofuryl) - serotonin 5-HT2 receptor antagonist. Results of numerous randomized trials confirmed its efficacy and safety in treatment of angiological patients, being superior to other vasotropic drugs (cilostazol, pentoxyphyllin, nicotinic acid).

Antianginal Drugs: Nitrates and β-Blockers
Organic nitrates, such as nitroglycerin, play a pivotal role. Once metabolized, they liberate nitric oxide, a molecular marvel. Nitric oxide triggers guanylyl cyclase and augments cGMP production. This biochemical cascade orchestrates the relaxation of vascular smooth muscles, ushering in vasodilation and enhancing coronary blood flow....
