Product introduction

Vasosure Tablet is a medicine used to treat high blood pressure in the blood vessels that supply the lungs (pulmonary arterial hypertension). It relieves breathlessness and improves exercise capacity in men and women. This slows down the progression of your illness.

Vasosure Tablet belongs to a group of medicines known as phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE 5) inhibitors. It may be taken on an empty stomach or with a meal, but it should be taken at a fixed time each day. The dose and how often you need to take it will be decided by your doctor so that you get the right amount to control your symptoms. Follow the advice of your doctor. It is important to take this medicine regularly and for as long as you are advised, even if you feel well. Missing doses may lead to the worsening of your condition.

The most common side effects of this medicine include flushing, headache, upset stomach, muscle pain, inflammation of nasal lining, diarrhea, and inflammation of sinus. If they bother you or if you experience any other side effects, talk to your doctor. They may be able to help you reduce or prevent the side effects.

This medicine can be dangerous to take along with medicines called nitrates (often given for chest pain). Do not take this medicine if you have severe heart or liver problems, if you have recently had a stroke or heart attack or if you have low blood pressure. Let your doctor know if you suffer from these or any other health problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor before taking it. You should not drive if this medicine makes you feel dizzy. Avoid drinking alcohol while taking this medicine as it increases the chances of side effects.

Benefits of Vasosure Tablet

In Treatment of Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) can cause shortness of breath, tiredness, dizziness, chest pain and swelling in your ankles and legs. It is caused by thickening of walls of the arteries that supply your lungs making it hard for blood to get through. Vasosure Tablet relaxes and widens blood vessels in the lungs. This helps reduce the strain on the heart and improves blood flow, leading to lowered blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries. By easing the workload on the heart and enhancing circulation, Vasosure Tablet can improve exercise capacity, reduce symptoms like shortness of breath and fatigue, and enhance the overall quality of life for individuals with PAH.

Side effects of Vasosure Tablet

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
