Efficacy & effects

Improvement of chronic arterial occlusive disease (ulcers, pain, etc.) and prevention of recurrence of cerebral infarction

  • Ulcers
  • pain
  • cold sensation due to chronic arterial occlusive disease
  • recurrence after the onset of cerebral infarction
View approved original text

In cases where ischemic symptoms such as ulcers, pain, and cold sensation occur due to chronic arterial occlusive disease, Buerger's disease, occlusive atherosclerosis, diabetic peripheral vascular disease, etc., and cilostazol monotherapy is insufficiently effective, combination therapy using cilostazol and ginkgo biloba extract is recommended as an alternative therapy. Additionally, the combination therapy can be utilized to prevent recurrence after the onset of cerebral infarction, excluding cardiogenic cerebral embolism. This treatment helps improve blood circulation and alleviate symptoms, contributing to an enhanced quality of life for patients.

How to take

Adult dose

Typically, for adults, 1 tablet is taken orally twice a day.
