Pinacidil
Pinacidil is a potassium channel opener of the cyanoguanidine class that activates ATP-sensitive potassium (K-ATP) channels in vascular smooth muscle, causing hyperpolarization, relaxation, and vasodilation. It was investigated as an antihypertensive agent and has been used experimentally in cardioprotection research, though it never achieved widespread clinical use.
