Pentoxifylline - instructions for use, reviews, analogs and formulations (100 mg tablets and 400 mg retard, injections in ampoules for injection in solution) for the treatment of circulatory disorders in adults, children and in pregnancy

Pentoxifylline - a drug that improves microcirculation. Angioprotector. Pentoxifylline improves microcirculation and rheological properties of blood. The mechanism of action of Pentoxifylline is associated with inhibition of phosphodiesterase and the accumulation of CAMP in the cells of the smooth muscles of blood vessels and blood cells. Pentoxifylline inhibits the aggregation of platelets and erythrocytes, increases their elasticity, reduces the level of fibrinogen in the plasma and enhances fibrinolysis, which reduces the viscosity of blood and improves its rheological properties.

 

Has a weak myotropic vasodilator effect. Pentoxifylline somewhat reduces the overall peripheral resistance and slightly dilates the coronary vessels.

When my daughter-in-law saw that I was taking Trental 400, she asked me why I was spending money on an expensive French drug if I could buy a domestic analogue. It is cheaper at times, but the effect is the same. I was surprised and was glad that I could replace the medicine. And I bought myself a drug Pentoxifylline, which, by the way, is a part of Trental 400. Pentoxifylline is really cheaper and in its packaging more - 60 tablets. It dilutes the blood, improving its fluid properties. The effect is no worse than from taking a foreign medicine. And now I can do without periodic drippers. In addition to Pentoxifylline, I take and linseed oil. In general, I struggle with my atherosclerosis by all available and inexpensive methods! I wish you all good health!

felena426, Mexidol and Pentoxifylline are different both in terms of the composition of the active substances and in the medication being given to the medicinal effect. Pentoxifylline is a drug that improves blood microcirculation and an angioprotector, and Mexidol is an antioxidant and membrane protector. If I saw a particular patient's medical history, such a substitute would be possible, but I do not recommend doing it myself and advise you to contact your doctor.

Hello dear therapist. A blood test showed a PTI of 104%, the therapist was always in a hurry, asked only about the state of the stomach and a couple more questions,after which he said add, to those that I already drink, Pentoxifylline 100 mg x 3 rd tablets. 1 month I want to hear your opinion about. Is not too much medicine and can damage such doses and the number of tablets. I read in the instructions pobochku and contra-indication I have not, I can safely drink. Only the opinion of a specialist is important for me and I see good reviews on the site, so I trust you. Your advice is important to me. It is not unimportant that you respond quickly. I'm very glad that there is someone who can consult for free, in our entire time. Thanks in the box.

mitrofan, Based on the diagnosis indicated in the extract, Pentoxifylline in the treatment regimen is superfluous and added to improve the overall blood circulation in the tissues. At least there will not be any harm from this drug.

Here with what I would understand seriously (дообследовался and consulted the cardiologist) it about a symptomatic hypertension. This is some kind of incomprehensible diagnosis for me. Hypertension (and not hypertension) is either in the patient and treatment is necessary (in your drug regimen for the treatment of this disease there), or such a diagnosis must be removed by careful preobsledovaniya and monitoring of BP figures.

The pain in the back disappeared after a couple of days, but side effects, in the form of headaches and stomach problems, caught in full, I had to lower the dose.

I was recently diagnosed with sarcoidosis of 1 degree and the doctor pulmonologist appointed a long-term use of pentoxifylline 0.1 to 3 times a day. Went to find out the testimonials. From today I started to drink. What will happen and how will it act, I do not know yet. And I also after a biopsy. Let's hope for good. I wish everyone good health and, most importantly, take care of your health!
Hello!
Tell me, please, how dangerous and dangerous is pentoxifylline for an age patient with hypertension of the 2nd degree and this year full BLNPG? Pentoxifylline was prescribed in the treatment of ENT because of the problem of noise in the ears and followed by a neurologist, telling the mother that he (pentoxifylline) is harmful to the heart.The instructions and the truth there is an indication of cardiovascular actions.
And the second question. What can be thought about the effectiveness of pentoxifylline against tinnitus, the cause of which the doctors determine precisely are difficult? As far as I can judge by instruction, pentoxifylline can help with narrowing of peripheral arteries. (At the same time, according to some researchers, its effectiveness is questionable). There are data from the examination of the fundus of the eye - the arteries are sharply narrowed, the veins are enlarged, full-blooded. (Hypertension is already 2 months under stable control.) There are fears that something similar with the vessels of the hearing organs and because of this noise in the ears. (MRI to make it impossible, my mother is afraid of enclosed spaces).
Thank you in advance for your reply. Excuse me, please, if it's written a little chaotically.
Sincerely.

Natalia 08042015, Pentoxifylline is a normal drug for eliminating problems with peripheral vessels. It is doubtful that in your case there will be sufficient effect in the treatment of vascular problems of the head and ear (if your noise in the ears of vascular genesis).With regard to the impact on patients, a lot of elderly people even I sit on it tightly and feel great at the same time. And in contra-indications, precise indications for problems with cardiovascular problems are listed, when this medicine should not be taken (infarction, cerebral sclerosis, etc.).

So to solve problems with the vessels of the head, I would recommend medications softer - Cavinton, Vinpocetine, Ginko Biloba, Bilobil, etc. or stronger - Piratsin, Fezam, Sermion. These drugs have a point of application in the vessels of the head, rather than the periphery, like Pentoxifylline.

svetlana2009, Perhaps osteochondrosis and somewhere the bone structures compress the vessels - then the gymnastics and Cavinton's courses and preparations based on Ginkgo Biloba help you. It is also necessary to find an intelligent neurologist for the correct diagnosis and the appointment of an adequate treatment. Now many similar symptoms are excruciating. This is the disease of our sitting at the computer lifestyle. Pentoxifylline in your case will be ineffective, and perhaps even worsen the condition due to another redistribution of blood.

Hello, Doctor! Years 8, how I suffer year-round allergic rhinitis and all this time I am rescued by Zirtek in drops, and of course, still a small bouquet - cervical osteochondrosis, autoimmune thyroiditis, native pressure - 110/70. In December of last year, on the advice of a familiar physician, I had a course of Cavinton IVs, I felt fine, even my allergy subsided - to the present day. I want to go through a course of treatment again, but only in tablets - droppers do hard, veins go away. Now they advised me to take a course of pentoxifylline.How do you think - what is better to use in this case - Cavinton or pentoxifylline, in tablets or drip?

Take what helps you. Pentoxifylline - also a good medicine, but the effect is stronger and can cause side effects, according to my observations more often than Cavinton.

Alyona, I do not understand our doctors who can not send a patient for an X-ray. Of course, the doctor must carry out the necessary diagnostic minimum (if it was not previously performed and the timing of the analysis allows the use of the old data), before prescribing treatment. And since I can not comment on the treatment, it is not clear from what. According to the situation from osteochondrosis, the treatment is complex and adequate, but the style of appointment raises questions.

Hello. At me protrusions of disks in the size from 0,2 to 0,4 mm have found out. I had a course of IVs, now I need to drink 20 days of pentoxifylline (with axamon and combibenin). My back aches terribly, and my leg is still troubled, although less, of course.

Olga, According to reviews, some patients are helped to reduce vertebral hernia caripain (you can see the instructions and reviews of this drug by site search). But I share the skepticism of your neurologist more, if there is a protrusion, in 90% of cases it will remain with you until the end of life or until the surgical operation removes this problem. Another question is that the doctor did not explain to you that you must look after yourself at any age - a healthy lifestyle, the correct organization of sedentary work, drug therapy, physiotherapy, exercise therapy under the supervision of a specialist (excessive physical work can do much harm). Work on your health, nothing from the sky itself will fall.

Thanks for the answer. Unfortunately, most often this is what happens - we do not take care of what is given from a young age and, alas, not forever. A healthy person is characterized by carelessness.And it's not the doctor's job at all - to explain the obvious things to each patient. A poor doctor would have time to write out a set of medicines to treat the consequences in a routine. And you are absolutely right that nothing falls from the sky. I have to change my whole life. First of all, in the head. Because the health goes from there. Plus, you need to learn how to swim, you need to go through physical therapy with an extract of a melon tree (my neurologist also mentioned it, thank you, and 10% is not so little), you have to pull yourself together ... a lot of things you need ... I hope, it's not too late, and it's still better than never. To everyone, including you, good health, optimism and love of life. Best regards, Olga.

According to the instructions and from the experience, there should not be any additional negative side effects when they are used together.

At me the right arm has sharply taken away, from a shoulder I feel nothing, I can not lift, only fingers move. I was very scared, age 40 years. The injury was not the day before. The neurologist suggested that from stress, which is likely. Without any examinations, he prescribed injections of dexamethasone, pills ipidacrin and Pentoxifylline. In the reviews, many write that Pentoxifylline may be a flush of blood.I have this problem since 20 years, uncontrolled "tides" to the face skin, capillaries burst, the marks, like points from needles, last long. And constantly red face. Cosmetologists say that the neurologist needs treatment, the neurologist makes a helpless gesture.

Angina pectoris of the 3rd functional class, aortic stenosis of the 2nd degree, last year there was a pre-infarction condition. The question is not for self-medication.

Natalia 08042015If in tablets, it is possible, but the risk due to concomitant pathology is still high. If there is nothing to replace, then you can try, but under medical supervision. Age patients, in addition to side effects, have to look more at absolute contraindications, otherwise there may be such a situation that there are so many diseases that it is impossible to give any treatment. From such situations there can be no unequivocal exit.
Hello. About pentoxifylline in tablets taken into account. We will ask for reassignment in tableted form. How do you think, what dosage of his or an analog in tablets is it possible to replace trental 10 units intravenously? (In case of a possible replacement after a second consultation, it will help with the conversation).
Administrators
admin
Natalia 08042015, So it is usually not replaced. The average therapeutic concentration for tablets indicated in the instructions is used, if there is no specific indication for the use of Pentoxifylline. Because 1 mg is administered intravenously,sometimes not equal to 1 mg of active ingredient, administered orally (in the form of tablets), absorption, bioavailability, loss of the drug during transport to the blood may be different.
