The adverse effects experienced are similar to those with use of adenosine. While adverse effects are less frequent with dipyridamole (47% of patients), they tend to be more serious than those associated with adenosine. The most common adverse effects of dipyridamole are chest pain (19%), headache (12%), and hypotension (4.6%). In addition, 12% of patients require aminophylline for reversal of adverse effects.
Persantine is dipyridamole, but you will have to get extended release tablets as the two asprin and dipyridamole should not be taken together. Don’t change the medications without discussing with your doctor. So, consult him and then decide.
Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
What is nonreversible apical inferior wall and what does it mean when they say no dipyridamole-induced reversible ischemia .there is mild defect in the apical inferior wall that is not reversible at rest.
While you are taking Aggrenox (aspirin/dipyridamole), you should avoid taking over-the-counter pain medicine, especially any other products containing aspirin or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
Also, Avoid alcohol, or drink a minimal amount, as the combination of Aggrenox and alcohol could cause stomach bleeding.
Some of the alternatives include aspirin, Clopidogrel (Plavix), ticlodipine (Ticlid), dipyridamole (Persantine). Another alternative is Heparin injection. Different situations require different levels of anticoagulation. It is important to discuss the best treatment option with a physician.
I suffered a mild stroke (blood clot) Consultant prescribed Clopidogrel but cannot tolerate side effects. Then consultant prescribed Dipyridamole. I cannot tolerate this either. Severe headache, vomiting and diarrhoea. Has anybody got a different medication they are on?
ECG last month showed SVES, RBBB. This week he has stress test with dipyridamole protocol, and injection of thallium-201. The result showed "evidence of mild, small to medium size, irreversible perfusion defect in the inferior/inferolateral wall (mid to basal level)." Could you explain what this means? Does he need to have surgery or pacemaker? thanks in advance for your help.
False negative imaging is especially common when exercise is submaximal or in dipyridamole/adenosine studies of patients with severe obstructions of all three major coronary vessels. False positive scanning may be caused by signal attenuation from an elevated left hemidiaphragm or from breast tissue. These artifactual defects can be identified by performing a gated perfusion study to assess regional wall motion.
Pharmacological stress Tc-99m MIBI scan was performed with Dipyridamole given at arate of 0.14 mg/Kg/min over 4 minutes followed by injection of radio tracer 6 minutes later.
Findings are: Peak stress images revealed hypoperfused infero-septal and apical segment, which showed reversal at rest.
Impression: Findings are consistent with infero-septal and apical reversible ischemia.
Thanks all!
t done it like that on a while but ever since then I been leaking this clear liquid stuff and idk what it is and its kinda a lot what does that mean?? Should I be worried?
s what my doc said because I would get up from sitting and a rush of liquid would come out. And yes it was a little pee and a clear discharge. The discharge is just hanging around the the placenta. Its not bacteria or infection. She said everyone is different and my body is just making extra liquids. So don't panic it really could be nothing but getting checked is the best thing to do.
For the past few days I have been leaking a sticky yellowish liquid, what is it? I am in week 37.
It should not be used if you are taking anticoagulant medications, including warfarin, aspirin, aspirin-containing products, NSAIDs, or antiplatelet agents (eg, ticlopidine, clopidogrel, dipyridamole). I am not sure of what other potential drug interactions.
I would discuss the use of this drug with your urologist and you should mention it whenever a healthcare professional inquires about the medications you are taking.
I looked at the package and ASASANTIN is a brand name for DIPYRIDAMOLE/ASPIRIN.
Thought I would clarify that.

I've taken liquid iron before and I think it works way better than the pill. The taste is so horrible I don't know if I can stand it while being pregnant!
m 34 weeks and tonight a notice one of my breast had a yellowish liquid coming out of it.Normally clear stuff come out of them but this was totally different,does this mean labor is near or what??
So I am 24 weeks and I just pulled off my bra and I noticed my nipple was secreting clear liquid, not a lot, just a drop... Is this normal? It is my first baby so I'm trying not to google a whole lot because I'm sure I could find 10 million BAD answers lol.
Hi I'm 18 and the past two days I've noticed that I've had watery liquid coming out of my vagina..its been coming out when I stand up or sometimes when I'm just laying in bed. I thought maybe I just needed to go to the bathroom but it's clear..can anybody tell me what it might mean? I don't ever recall having this before.
