Recent Trental Side Effects
Posted by reruho about 1 month ago
I am very pleased with the overall effect. I have vasoconstrition problems (blood vessels spasming) from my CRPS (chronic pain condition). My arm would get freezing cold and then the pain was unbearable. Within a week of starting this medication, I was getting relief and was able to reduce the pain meds I take daily.
The worst side effect is the horrible taste in my mouth, which starts within minutes of taking it.

Trental Chemical Information
pentoxifylline - A methylxanthine derivative with hemorrheologic and immunomodulating properties. Pentoxifylline inhibits phosphodiesterase, resulting in increased levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in erythrocytes, endothelium, and the surrounding tissues. This leads to vasodilation, improves erythrocyte flexibility, and enhances blood flow. In addition, the increased level of cAMP in platelets inhibits platelet aggregation, which may contribute to a reduction in blood viscosity. This agent also inhibits production of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interferon-gamma, while it induces Th2-like (T-helper 2) cytokine production, thereby inhibiting Th1-mediated (T-helper 1) inflammatory and autoimmune responses.
