NCIt definition : The sodium salt form of epoprostenol, a synthetic prostacyclin, a member of the family
of prostaglandins, with vasodilatory and anticoagulant activity. Epoprostenol sodium
directly simulates prostaglandin receptors in arterial vascular smooth muscle, thereby
causing vasodilatation. This agent also inhibits platelet aggregation by antagonizing
platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa receptors, thereby preventing thrombus formation.;
