    potassium channel opener that relaxes blood vessels

    Cromakalim is a drug that acts as a potassium channel opener, which means it helps relax and widen blood vessels by allowing potassium ions to flow out of cells. This mechanism can improve blood flow and has been studied for its potential to treat conditions like hypertension and hair loss (alopecia) by enhancing circulation to hair follicles.
