Frequently asked questions

What conditions is Iloprost used to treat?+
Iloprost is prescribed for pulmonary arterial hypertension to lower pulmonary arterial pressure and improve exercise capacity, and for digital ulcers associated with systemic sclerosis to promote healing and reduce new ulcer formation.
How does Iloprost work in the body?+
Iloprost acts as a selective prostacyclin (IP) receptor agonist. Activation of these receptors raises cyclic AMP in vascular smooth‑muscle cells, causing vasodilation and inhibiting platelet aggregation, which improves blood flow in the pulmonary circulation and peripheral vessels.
What is the usual dose of Iloprost?+
The dosing regimen for Iloprost is individualized. A qualified prescriber determines the appropriate infusion rate, concentration, and duration based on the patient’s clinical condition, response, and tolerance.
Is Iloprost safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for Iloprost in pregnancy and lactation are limited. The product is classified as pregnancy category unknown, and it is generally advised to avoid use unless the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus or infant.
How do I order Iloprost from GNH USA?+
To request Iloprost, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com with the required quantity. GNH USA supplies hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details (including cold‑chain where required) and import documentation.
How does Iloprost compare with other prostacyclin therapies?+
Iloprost is a synthetic prostacyclin analog administered intravenously, offering rapid onset and short half‑life. Compared with longer‑acting agents like epoprostenol, Iloprost may allow more flexible infusion schedules but requires careful monitoring for hypotension and bleeding.
What are the recommended storage conditions for Iloprost?+
Iloprost solution for injection should be stored refrigerated at 2‑8 °C. Keep the vial in its original packaging, protect it from light, and do not freeze or shake the product before use.
How is Iloprost administered to patients?+
Iloprost is given as an intravenous infusion. The solution is diluted according to the prescriber’s instructions and administered via a controlled infusion pump over a prescribed period, typically in a clinical setting with continuous monitoring.
What are the most serious risks associated with Iloprost therapy?+
Serious risks include severe hypotension, pulmonary edema, and bleeding complications. Patients should be monitored closely for sudden drops in blood pressure, signs of fluid overload, and any unexpected bleeding during treatment.
Who should not receive Iloprost?+
Iloprost is contraindicated in patients with active bleeding, uncontrolled severe hypotension, or known hypersensitivity to the drug or its excipients. Caution is also advised for individuals with severe renal impairment or during pregnancy.
