Limapri Tablet (Limaprost Alfadex)

Adult dose

For improvement of ischemic symptoms such as ulcers, pain, and coldness due to thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease), the usual adult dose is 2 tablets orally, 3 times daily. For improvement of subjective symptoms (lower-limb pain and numbness) and walking ability due to acquired lumbar spinal stenosis (patients with normal SLR test results and bilateral intermittent claudication), the usual adult dose is 1 tablet orally, 3 times daily. The dose may be adjusted according to age and symptoms.

This medication should not be used in women who are pregnant or may become pregnant. This drug contains lactose, so individuals with a hereditary inability to digest lactose should not take it. Patients with a tendency to bleed or taking medications that may cause bleeding should use this drug with caution. Taking this medication may lead to adverse reactions such as skin rash or itching, so if such symptoms occur, discontinuation should be immediate. Bleeding may occur infrequently, so if signs of bleeding appear, stop taking the drug immediately and consult a doctor. It may affect the digestive system, causing symptoms like diarrhea, nausea, abdominal discomfort, loss of appetite, and heartburn. It may influence liver function, so it is advisable to have regular liver function tests as there is a likelihood of increased liver enzymes. Symptoms such as rapid heartbeat, cold extremities, or low blood pressure may occur, so caution is needed if these symptoms arise. Headaches, flushing of the face, dizziness, a feeling of warmth, and body fatigue may also appear, and if such changes occur, they should be reported. Patients with lumbar spinal canal stenosis should closely monitor changes in symptoms and decide whether to continue taking this medication. Safety during pregnancy is not confirmed, thus individuals who are pregnant must not take it, and uterine contractions have been reported in animal studies. The safety for children has not been established, and therefore, there is no usage experience in this demographic. Elderly individuals may have decreased bodily functions, requiring dosage adjustments and close attention. In healthy adults, administering a high dose may temporarily lower blood pressure, so caution is advised.
