Cilostazol

Uses

Cilostazol is used in the treatment of peripheral vascular disease and intermittent claudication. It helps reduce the symptoms of intermittent claudication, such as pain, cramping, numbness, or weakness in the legs that occur during walking.

How it Works

How Cilostazol works: Cilostazol widens blood vessels and decreases the stickiness of platelets, thereby increasing blood flow to the lower limbs.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Cilostazol include headache, palpitations, abnormal stool, diarrhea, chest pain, and edema (swelling).

Expert Advice

  • Take it at least half an hour before or two hours after breakfast and dinner.
  • It may take up to 12 weeks before your symptoms improve.
  • Continue using the medication as directed.
  • Consult your doctor if your symptoms do not improve after 4 weeks of treatment.
  • Be aware that it may cause dizziness.
  • Avoid driving or engaging in activities that require mental focus until you know how it affects you.
  • Do not take it if you have:
    • Heart failure
    • Persistent chest pain at rest
    • A heart attack or any heart surgery in the last six months
  • Cilostazol is used in the treatment of pain in the legs due to insufficient blood flow (intermittent claudication).
  • It increases the distance you can walk without pain.
  • Use it in conjunction with lifestyle modifications such as:
    • Smoking cessation
    • Increased exercise

Frequently asked questions

Does Cilostazol affect blood pressure?
Cilostazol generally lowers blood pressure by widening blood vessels. If you are on other blood pressure-lowering medications, monitor your blood pressure closely, as combining them may lead to excessively low levels. Additionally, Cilostazol has been reported to increase blood pressure for unknown reasons.
How long should I continue taking Cilostazol?
Continue taking Cilostazol for as long as your doctor advises. Your progress will be evaluated after 3 months, and if the medication is ineffective, your doctor may suggest discontinuation. It is crucial to keep taking the medicine even if you feel well, as it manages your condition but does not cure it.
Does Cilostazol increase the risk of bleeding?
Yes, Cilostazol increases the risk of bleeding. Exercise caution during activities that may cause injury or bleeding, and inform your doctor immediately if you notice any unusual bruising or bleeding.
Should I stop taking Cilostazol before surgery?
Yes, you should stop taking Cilostazol 5 days prior to surgery due to its potential to increase bleeding risk, which could lead to excessive bleeding during the procedure.
When will I notice improvements after starting Cilostazol?
Cilostazol helps reduce the risk of blood clots, but you may not feel immediate effects. Continue taking the medication as prescribed to benefit fully from its effects.
Why is Cilostazol harmful for patients with heart failure?
Cilostazol is contraindicated in heart failure patients of any severity because it may exacerbate the condition. Similar medications have been associated with reduced patient lifespan, making it unsuitable for these patients.
When can I expect to feel better after starting Cilostazol?
Symptoms may start to improve within 2-4 weeks of treatment, but it may take about 12 weeks to experience the full benefits of the medication.
