- What is this prescription?
- A METHYLXANTHINE derivative that inhibits phosphodiesterase and affects blood rheology. It improves blood flow by increasing erythrocyte and leukocyte flexibility. It also inhibits platelet aggregation. Pentoxifylline modulates immunologic activity by stimulating cytokine production.
- What is this prescription used for?
- This medication is used to improve the symptoms of a certain blood flow problem in the legs/arms (intermittent claudication due to occlusive artery disease). Pentoxifylline can decrease the muscle aching/pain/cramps during exercise, including walking, that occur with intermittent claudication. Pentoxifylline belongs to a class of drugs known as hemorrheologic agents. It works by helping blood flow more easily through narrowed arteries. This increases the amount of oxygen that can be delivered by the blood when the muscles need more (such as during exercise) thereby increasing walking distance and duration.
This dataset provides information about prescriptions written for Medicare beneficiaries in the year 2022. It does not include prescriptions for patients with private insurance, Medicaid, or other coverage types. However, this information remains valuable for all patients, as it may reflect the provider's overall prescribing preferences and approach to pharmaceutical care. This can help you make better-informed decisions when considering or continuing care with this provider.
