Adempas – Riociguat uses, dose and side effects

Adempas contains the active substance riociguat. Riociguat is a type of medicine called a guanylate cyclase (GC) stimulant. It works by dilating the pulmonary arteries (the blood vessels that connect the heart to the lungs), making it easier for the heart to pump blood through the lungs. Adempas can be used to treat adults with certain forms of pulmonary hypertension, a condition in which these blood vessels become narrow, making it harder for the heart to pump blood through them and leading to high blood pressure in the vessels. Because the heart has to work harder than normal, people with pulmonary hypertension feel tired, dizzy, and short of breath. By widening the repressed arteries lead to the use of Adempas to improve your ability to be physically active.
