The effects of iloprost, a stable analog derivative of prostacyclin, on heart rate, blood pressure, renal plasma flow (RPF), glomerular filtration rate, filtration fraction, urine flow, fractional excretion of sodium (FENa), proximal fractional sodium reabsorption (PFRNa), fractional sodium resorption at the ascending limb of Henle's loop (HFRNa), plasma renin activity (PRA), and plasma aldosterone concentration (PA) were evaluated in patients with peripheral vascular disease and normal renal function. In 10 patients the drug was administered intravenously for 6 hours daily for 6 days at a rate of 1 ng/kg/min. In 7 patients iloprost was also administered at a dose of 2 ng/kg/min for the same time. There was no significant change in heart rate and blood pressure at both iloprost doses. At the dose of 1 ng/kg/min the drug had no effect on renal hemodynamics and function, PRA, and PA. At the dose of 2 ng/kg/min iloprost significantly increased RPF (p less than 0.025) and FENa (p less than 0.025) and significantly decreased HFRNa (p less than 0.025) without affecting glomerular filtration rate, filtration fraction, urine flow, PFRNa, PRA, and PA. No correlation was found between the increase in RPF and FENa (r = 0.01). We conclude that at a dose of 2 ng/kg/min, but not 1 ng/kg/min, iloprost has a natriuretic effect secondary to inhibition of sodium reabsorption at the ascending limb of the Henle's loop and not related to the renal hemodynamic effect.
