Viprostol (also known as CL115,347), a prostaglandin E2 congener that was studied as an antihypertensive agent. Viprostol has a potent and prolonged blood pressure lowering effect in many models of hypertension. In clinical studies, viprostol has been demonstrated to lower arterial blood pressure significantly in man following transdermal and/or intravenous administration. The antihypertensive action of viprostol has been suggested to be the result of peripheral vasodilatation. In addition, the drug participated in a clinical trial in normal subjects and in patients with Raynaud's phenomenon. It was found the optimal dosage was 1000 ug; the effect could last for 84 hours; higher dosage may be associated with a "steal" phenomenon.
