DESCRIPTION

Pinacidil is a cyanoguanidine compound that acts as a potassium channel opener, activating the ATP-modulated potassium channels of guinea pig bladder and heart with Ki values of 104 and 251 nM, respectively. Induces relaxation of serotonin-produced contractions in porcine and human arterial rings. Vasodilator. Antihypertensive agent. It is primarily used as a vasodilator, meaning it relaxes and widens blood vessels, leading to decreased resistance to blood flow and lower blood pressure. Due to its mechanism of action, pinacidil is used in the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure).
