Riociguat for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension "Have been taking as part of my treatment for PAH for now 1 year. Had the headaches and some mild diarrhea during the titrations. Take 2.5 mg 3x daily. This drug has helped me tremendously to have a better quality of life and again be able to do many things that before would not be possible because I would have no energy to do them. I am very grateful for this drug."

Taken for 1 to 2 years

For Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension "I have been taking Adempas for 2 years. My breathing is getting worse. Out of breath with exertion or any exercise, I have gained 40 lbs, my stomach looks like I am 9 months pregnant. I have pain in my extremities, legs, face, and arms swollen. My extremities are swollen and hurt, and pain in stomach. I had been going from one doc to the next with much testing done with no positive results of anything wrong. Until I read comments here on drugs.com that listed all the med side effects, and I match them to my symptoms. I will be speaking to my doctor about all of this."
