Pulmonary Hypertension | Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension | 3 Treatment Algorithms: Claims Data Analysis | US | 2019

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare and life-threatening disorder marked by considerable morbidity and mortality. A wide array of drugs are available for PAH management. Phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors and endothelin receptor antagonists (ERAs) are the most commonly prescribed first-line treatment; the more-efficacious prostacyclin therapies are used in later lines. Branded therapies dominate the PAH treatment algorithm, and combination therapy is common.
