They work by reducing the high level of a chemical (prostaglandin) in the lining of the womb. Prostaglandin seems to contribute to heavy and painful periods.
They may aim to: Increase the drainage of aqueous humour (for example, prostaglandin analogue drops). Reduce the amount of aqueous humour that you make (for example, beta-blocker...

Hyperactive renin-angiotensin system (plasma renin increased, lack of effect of angiotensin on blood pressure, renal potassium wasting, increased renal prostaglandin production and, occasiona...
When a planned VBAC is induced, the uterine rupture risk is higher if prostaglandin is used than in a non-prostaglandin-based regimen: in a Norwegian observational study of almost 19...
In the last few years, clinical trials for gene therapy as well as idebenone, a synthetic analog of coenzyme Q 10 , have sought to reduce the impact and progression of LHON after its onset....
Cervix <4 on Bishop's score - can be overcome by ripening with prostaglandins. Relative contra-indications include: Active primary genital herpes infection .
It also reduces renal blood flow by inhibiting prostaglandins. Prostaglandin synthesis inhibition also features in the pathophysiology of AKI related to NSAIDs.
Laboratory results showing evidence of mast cell activation (eg, a transient rise in serum tryptase or urinary N-methyl histamine, or the histamine metabolites prostaglandin D2 and prosta...
Another third respond to alternating courses of steroids and cyclophosphamide, rituximab, calcineurin inhibitors, chlorambucil, mycophenolate mofetil, or adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) analogs...
A recombinant analog of glucagon-like peptide-2 (teduglutide) has been shown to result in a significant reduction in the requirement of intravenous fluids/parenteral nutrition. [ 10 , 11 ] ...
Pathogenesis [ 1 ] It is thought to be due to an excess or imbalance of prostaglandins and leukotrienes in the menstrual fluid, which in turn produces vasoconstriction in the uterine vess...
Pathogenesis Most of the cells are fibroblasts which, as well as being an essential part of the integrity of the interstitial matrix, have various endocrine functions, including production of eryth...
Combination therapy with other anti-inflammatory agents may increase effectiveness of treatment, but may further exacerbate the risk of infection due to immunodeficiency. Prostaglandin E1 ...
