Abstract
Treprostinil was approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for use in the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension in 2002. Intravenous or subcutaneous treprostinil is used in pulmonary arterial hypertension patients in the functional classes of II-IV to alleviate exercise-related symptoms, or in cases where epoprostenol treatment should be reduced due to side effects. In this article, we describe three pediatric cases of pulmonary arterial hypertension in whom subcutaneous treprostinil was used.
