Overview
Norfloxacin, pentoxifylline, inhaled N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, nitric oxide inhalation and methylene blue injection, are among suggested and studied medical treatments for HPS.
Future or Investigational Therapies
- Norfloxacin, pentoxifylline, inhaled N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, nitric oxide inhalation and methylene blue injection, are among suggested and studied medical treatments for HPS. Non of them yet approved as standard treatment for HPS.
