Furegrelate Sodium (1-5 mg/kg; po) prevents blockage of the coronary artery[1].
Furegrelate Sodium (0.1-5 mg/kg; i.v.) prevents the blockage of stenosed coronary arteries caused platelet aggregation[1].
Furegrelate Sodium blunts the development of hypoxia-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in an established neonatal piglet model primarily by preserving the structural integrity of the pulmonary vasculature[2].
Furegrelate has a long half-life compared to several other drugs used to treat PAH, including nitric oxide and prostagcyclin analogues; And Furegrelate is highly specific to the target enzyme[2].
