Macitentan

An orally administered dual endothelin receptor antagonist used for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Macitentan blocks endothelin ETA and ETB receptors, reducing endothelin-1-mediated vasoconstriction, vascular smooth muscle proliferation, and pathological pulmonary vascular remodeling. It improves exercise capacity and reduces the risk of clinical worsening in patients with PAH. Its active metabolite, aprocitentan, contributes to sustained endothelin receptor antagonism. Important adverse effects include anemia, fluid retention, and embryo-fetal toxicity
