A pilot trial of treprostinil for the treatment and prevention of digital ulcers in patients with systemic sclerosis
A pilot trial of treprostinil for the treatment and prevention of digital ulcers in patients with systemic sclerosis JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF DERMATOLOGY Chung, L., Fiorentino, D. 2006; 54 (5): 880-882Abstract

Although effective, the high rate of injection site reactions may limit the utility of this therapy.
