Improvement of symptoms and walking ability in lumbar spinal stenosis, and ischemic symptoms of Buerger's disease
This medication helps improve ischemic symptoms such as ulcers, pain, and cold sensation caused by occlusive thromboangiitis, specifically Buerger's disease. It is also used to improve subjective symptoms and walking ability in patients experiencing leg pain and numbness due to acquired lumbar spinal canal stenosis.
1. For improvement of ischemic symptoms such as ulcers, pain, and coldness associated with thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger disease), the usual adult dose is 2 tablets orally 3 times daily. 2. For improvement of subjective symptoms (lower-limb pain and numbness) and walking ability associated with acquired lumbar spinal stenosis (patients with a normal SLR test and bilateral intermittent claudication), the usual adult dose is 1 tablet orally 3 times daily. Adjust the dose appropriately according to age and symptoms.
This medication should not be used by pregnant women or women who may become pregnant. This medication contains lactose, and should not be given to patients with a genetic disorder that prevents them from digesting lactose. Patients with a tendency for bleeding or those taking antiplatelet agents, thrombolytics, or anticoagulants should use this medication cautiously. Sometimes, hypersensitivity reactions such as skin rash or itching may occur while using this medication; if these symptoms develop, discontinue use and seek appropriate measures. Bleeding may occur rarely, so if symptoms of bleeding appear, stop taking the medication immediately and consult a doctor. Gastrointestinal side effects may include diarrhea, nausea, abdominal discomfort, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, heartburn, vomiting, and abdominal bloating. This may affect liver function, potentially elevating liver enzyme levels (AST, ALT); therefore, regular liver function tests are recommended. Cardiovascular anomalies such as palpitations, cyanosis of the extremities, and hypotension may occur occasionally. Various symptoms such as headache, facial flushing, dizziness, heat sensation, tremors, swelling, chest swelling, increased body hair, and anemia may occur, so caution is advised. Patients with lumbar spinal canal stenosis should closely monitor their symptom progression and decide whether to continue taking the medication; in severe cases requiring surgery, the effectiveness of this medication may not be definitive. Safety during pregnancy has not been established, and uterine contraction effects have been reported in animal studies, so women who may become pregnant should not take this medication. Safety has not been established in children, so it is advisable not to use this medication in pediatric patients. Elderly patients may have reduced physical function, so they should use this medication cautiously, possibly at a reduced dosage. In healthy adults, administering a large dose may temporarily lower blood pressure, so caution is necessary.
Not everyone experiences these, and they can vary from person to person.
