"I have been on this medication since July, and the results are simply amazing! I have my life back. Not only did I get so much relief from the pain in my legs, I can now walk and walk and actually keep up with my very active grandkids (ages 4, 11, 11, and 16). On a side note, I have lost almost all my excess weight by tweaking my diet and just being able to be active again! This medicine has been a godsend to me! Hope anyone who is suffering from this disease is able to get the same results I have. It is great to have my active life back!"

"I have been on Pletal for 2 weeks and have both positive and negative effects. The pain in my left leg is much better, but I am having pretty severe headaches and a stiff neck. I have been a migraine sufferer since the age of 13. These are not migraines but a throbbing pain at the base of my skull. I will continue the drug as long as I can stand the headaches. If headache pain becomes worse than leg pain, guess I'll stop the Pletal?"

"Within several hours of taking Pletal for my leg pains due to PAD, I began to experience severe headaches. I stayed on the medicine for one week, hoping it would subside. It remained constant, so I discontinued taking it."

"I have peripheral artery disease. Pain/numbness in legs/buttocks. Difficulty walking standing. Within ONE HOUR of beginning treatment with Pletal, I began feeling relief. More than two weeks now with almost TOTAL relief from discomfort/pain/weakness and no side effects. Absolutely amazing medicine."
