Bioglandin is a brand name for Alprostadil, a medication that is primarily used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED), though it can also be used to treat neonatal persistent pulmonary hypertension (in newborns). Alprostadil is a prostaglandin E1 analogue, meaning it mimics the natural prostaglandin E1 in the body, which has various effects on the cardiovascular system, including blood pressure regulation. How Bioglandin (Alprostadil) Affects Blood Pressure: Vasodilation: Alprostadil works by promoting the dilation of blood vessels (called vasodilation). It does this by increasing the levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP), a molecule that relaxes smooth muscle cells in blood vessel walls. In the case of erectile dysfunction, when  Bioglandin Injection  is injected into the penis, it helps relax the smooth muscles in the penile arteries, improving blood flow and helping to produce an erection. Systemic Vasodilation: While Bioglandin is intended to act locally (in the penis), the vasodilation effect can also be systemic (affecting the entire body). This means it may cause widespread blood vessel relaxation throughout the body, leading to a drop in systemic blood pressure. The systemic effect on blood vessels occurs because Alprostadil can be absorbed into the bloodstream, especially when injected into larger muscles or veins.
