    Pulmonary vasodilators are drugs which are currently used in the management of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. They have been introduced over the last few years, and many of them are already available in Colombia. However, the advent of these therapies demands a deeper knowledge of their actions, potential interactions, mechanisms of action, and adverse effects, as well as the benefits which have been demostrated in several clinical trials, so that the physician is able to make the best choice for each individual suffering from this disease according to group, comorbidities, and functional class, as well as to teach both the physician and the patient to recognize their potential adverse events.
