arterial hypertensive disease

Bendroflumethiazide (Naturetin) is a thiazide diuretic with actions and uses similar to those of HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE. It has been used in the treatment of familial hyperkalemia, hypertension, edema, and urinary tract disorders. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p810)

SKP-451 is an ATP-sensitive potassium (K+) channel agonist. It activates ATP-sensitive K+ channels, promoting the efflux of K+, leading to membrane hyperpolarization and inhibiting Ca2+ influx, which results in the relaxation of vascular smooth muscle. SKP-451 relaxes canine coronary arteries, rabbit basilar arteries, and vertebral arteries. Additionally, SKP-451 lowers mean arterial blood pressure in conscious spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). It holds potential for cardiovascular disease research.
