Description
Summary:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare chronic life-threatening disease. The treatment standards for PAH patients emphasize the need for early intervention and achievement of all treatment goals with the use of monotherapy or combinations. To date, strong evidence has been obtained that combination therapy with PAH-specific medications can significantly inhibit the development of the disease. Therefore, in modern guidelines, combination therapy is considered as a treatment standard for a significant proportion of patients with PAH. This publication presents a modern view of the selexipag practical using in early combination therapy in patients with PAH.
