Description
ChEBI: Iloprost is a carbobicyclic compound that is prostaglandin I2 in which the endocyclic oxygen is replaced by a methylene group and in which the (1E,3S)-3-hydroxyoct-1-en-1-yl side chain is replaced by a (3R)-3-hydroxy-4-methyloct-1-en-6-yn-1-yl group. A synthetic analogue of prostacyclin, it is used as the trometamol salt (generally by intravenous infusion) for the treatment of peripheral vascular disease and pulmonary hypertension. It has a role as a platelet aggregation inhibitor and a vasodilator agent. It is a monocarboxylic acid, a secondary alcohol and a carbobicyclic compound.
This more chemically and biologically stable derivativeof prostacyclin is available as a solution (10 μg/mL)for nasal inhalation (Ventavis by Actelion) via a preciselycalibrated inhalation device for the treatment of pulmonaryarterial hypertension (PAH). Patients inhale 6 to 8 puffs ofaerosolized iloprost every 2 to 3 hours to produce a directvasodilatory effect on pulmonary blood vessels, therebydecreasing vascular resistance. Side effects of coughing,flushing, headaches, and jaw pain have been most commonlyreported.

Iloprost Use and Manufacturing
Treatment of pulmonary hypertension (prostacyclin analogue).
A synthetic analogue of Prostacyclin (PGI2) used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), scleroderma, Raynaud''s phenomenon and ischemia. It acts through elevation of cAMP by binding to the prostacyclin receptor (IP receptor). Iloprost inhibits the ADP, thrombin, and collagen-induced aggregation of human platelets with an ED50 of about 13 nM. In whole animals, iloprost acts as a vasodilator, hypotensive, antidiuretic, and prolongs bleeding time.
