It raises pressure in the pulmonary arteries, not the systemic arteries, and requires dedicated specialist-directed therapy at an accredited PAH centre. Riociguat was introduced by Bayer in 2013 as <strong>Adempas<\/strong> &mdash; the first sGC stimulator approved for human use. FDA-approved for two specific forms of pulmonary hypertension: pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH, WHO Group 1) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH, WHO Group 4) &mdash; the only oral drug approved for inoperable CTEPH. directly activates soluble guanylate cyclase (the NO receptor) in pulmonary arterial smooth muscle, raising cGMP and producing pulmonary vasodilation. Unlike PDE5 inhibitors, riociguat stimulates sGC even in the absence of NO, giving activity in NO-deficient vascular beds characteristic of PAH and CTEPH. Dosing: Start 1 mg three times daily (8-hour intervals); titrate every 2 weeks by 0.5 mg increments based on systolic BP (must remain &gt;95 mmHg) and symptoms. Target dose 2.5 mg three times daily. PAH treatment is typically combination therapy initiated and monitored at a specialist centre; this is not a DIY disease.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"medsbase-trust-strip\"
