Improvement of symptoms and walking ability in lumbar spinal stenosis, and ischemic symptoms in Buerger's disease
This medication helps improve ischemic symptoms such as ulcers, pain, and cold sensations caused by obstructive thromboangiitis, specifically Buerger's disease. It is also used to relieve subjective symptoms such as leg pain, numbness, and reduced walking ability in patients with acquired lumbar spinal stenosis. Through these effects, it aims to make patients' daily lives more comfortable.
1. For improvement of ischemic symptoms such as ulcers, pain, and coldness caused by thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease), the usual adult dose is 2 tablets per dose, 3 times daily orally. 2. For improvement of subjective symptoms (lower limb pain and numbness) and walking ability caused by acquired lumbar spinal canal stenosis (patients with normal SLR test results and bilateral intermittent claudication), the usual adult dose is 1 tablet per dose, 3 times daily orally. Adjust the dose as appropriate according to age and symptoms.
This medication should not be used by pregnant women or women who may become pregnant. It also contains lactose, so it should not be administered to patients with genetic issues such as galactose intolerance, lactase deficiency, or glucose-galactose malabsorption. Patients with a tendency to bleed or those taking antiplatelet agents, thrombolytic agents, or anticoagulants should be cautious when using this medication. During treatment, hypersensitivity reactions such as rashes or itching may occur; if such symptoms appear, administration should be stopped immediately. Additionally, bleeding may occur rarely, so it is important to monitor one's condition closely, and if abnormal symptoms arise, the medication should be discontinued. Gastrointestinal symptoms may include diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, decreased appetite, and heartburn, and vomiting or abdominal distension may occur rarely. Since this medication can affect liver function, regular testing is required as liver enzyme levels may rise. Rapid heart rate or low blood pressure may occur, and cyanosis (blue discoloration) of hands and feet may appear rarely. Side effects may include headache, facial flushing, dizziness, hot flashes, generalized fatigue, swelling, tremors, increased body hair on the legs, and anemia. Patients with lumbar spinal stenosis should carefully observe any changes in symptoms when deciding to continue using the medication. Safety has not been established for pregnant women, and uterine contraction effects have been reported in animal studies, so pregnant women should not take this medication. Safety has not been established in children; therefore, there is no experience with use in this population. Elderly patients may have reduced physical function, so caution is needed, including dosage adjustments. Finally, healthy adults should be aware that taking a large dose of this medication at once can temporarily lower blood pressure.
