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 per dose, 3 times daily by mouth. 2. For improvement of subjective symptoms (lower limb pain and numbness) and walking ability due to acquired lumbar spinal canal stenosis (patients with a normal SLR test and bilateral intermittent claudication), the usual adult dose is 1 tablet per dose, 3 times daily by mouth. Adjust the dose as appropriate according to age and symptoms.

This medication should not be used in women who are pregnant or may become pregnant. This medication contains lactose, so it should not be administered to patients with a genetic disorder that causes lactose intolerance. Patients with a tendency to bleed or those taking medications that affect blood clotting should use this medication with caution. Allergic reactions such as skin rash or itching may occur with this medication, so it should be discontinued immediately if such symptoms appear. There may be rare occurrences of bleeding, so bleeding symptoms should be carefully monitored. Gastrointestinal discomfort may occur, including diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, appetite loss, and heartburn. Due to the potential effect on liver function, it is necessary to regularly check for elevated liver enzyme levels. Cardiovascular symptoms such as rapid heartbeat or low blood pressure may occur. A variety of side effects have been reported, including headaches, facial flushing, dizziness, warmth sensation, fatigue, swelling, tremor, increased body hair on the legs, and anemia. Patients with lumbar spinal canal stenosis should carefully observe symptoms and decide on the continued use of this medication. Safety has not been established during pregnancy, and uterine contractions have been observed in animal studies, so it is not used in pregnant women. Safety has not been confirmed in children, and there is no experience in use. Elderly patients may have weakened physical function, so caution should be exercised by possibly reducing the dosage. High doses in healthy adults may temporarily lower blood pressure, so caution is required.
