Efficacy & effects

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

View approved original text

Cilostazol can be combined with Ginkgo Biloba Extract when cilostazol monotherapy is not sufficiently effective, to improve ischemic symptoms such as ulcers, pain, and coldness caused by chronic arterial occlusive disease. This combined treatment is also used as alternative therapy to prevent recurrence after cerebral infarction (except for cardiogenic cerebral embolism). This therapy helps to improve blood circulation, alleviate symptoms, and prevent recurrence.
