Reviews for Revatio

Anonymous · Taken for 5 to 10 years · July 1, 2020

For Pulmonary Hypertension "Revatio was prescribed by my Pulmonary doctor for PAH. A miracle drug that helped me breathe better, I was able to exercise and felt great. After changing insurance carriers I am no longer able to get Revatio and I can tell how my body feels lethargic and I have spells of hard to breathe all day long now. Sad but health care and insurance don't go hand in hand to help us that actually need this med as it is extremely expensive. My 90 day supply of 10mg 3 times a day med cost almost 3,000.00 but my co pay was only 60.00. Since I lost that insurance I can no longer get Revatio."

For Pulmonary Hypertension "I've taken this medicine for a little over a year and the results have been wonderful. No side effects. It's hard to put into words how much it has improved my quality of life. Unfortunately, the copay is now too high and I will have to stop taking it."

For Pulmonary Hypertension "I have been on Revatio for two years now. Started with two pills (40mg) three times a day and have worked up to the max of four pills (80mg) three times a day. At first I did get the nasal congestion but now everything is normal. I am also on Letaris and warfarin. "

Laurie · Taken for 5 to 10 years · February 25, 2018

For Pulmonary Hypertension "I have been taking it for 6 years 25 mg x 3 times a day. And now 40 mg x 3 times a day. It has helped me without having any side effects. But I might have to add another treatment to it pretty soon. But I'm not sure which one I should try. Any advice?"

"I had taken Revatio after AAA surgery when Dr thought I might lose legs or feet. When I switched Doctor and had stent surgery in left leg, doctor taken me off of Revatio. After failed stent and failed bypass surgery on leg, I started taking Revatio again when I couldn't walk a block without severe pain and had trouble sleeping because of pain and swelling. Since then, I am now able to walk a mile and sleep at night without pain."
