Treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Using Initial Combination Therapy of Bosentan and Iloprost

Abstract

Initial combination therapy in treatment-naive PAH subjects with WHO functional class III or IV can significantly improve 6MWD, hemodynamics, and quality of life compared with monotherapy. Further studies with large samples and placebo controls are required to assess the tolerability and efficacy of initial combination therapy in patients with PAH.
