supplement:

Cocaine

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Conclusion: It is speculated that, when present in high concentrations, cocaine may affect vascular tone by inhibition of endothelial cell prostacyclin and PGE2 release.
Results: Cocaine produced a dose-dependent reduction in prostacyclin and PGE2 production from endothelial cells (p < 0.05).

Cocaine , normetanephrine and U-0521, augmented the positive inotropic influence of PGI2 on atria paced at a slow rate (0.8 Hz) but not at a faster one (3.3 Hz).

Cocaine significantly increased PGI2 plasma levels in arachidonate-treated rats in hypoxic respiratory conditions; in normoxic conditions cocaine left PGI2 levels unchanged.
