[Clinical trial of Trental 100 in patients with peripheral arterial occlusive diseases (author's transl)]. 1977

J G von Westphalen

The preparation Trental 100 was given to 73 patients in a vascular surgery department at a daily dose of 2-3 dragees over an average of 2-3 months. 51 of 67 patients with chronic arterial disorders of the lower extremities and 5 of 6 patients with circulatory disturbances in the brachial region improved, as measured by the walking distance, reactive hyperemia time, pain at rest and effect in tissue defects. Tests for objective tolerance showed no effects on the blood picture, liver and kidney functions and carbohydrate metabolism. In a few patients, subjective intolerance disappeared after reducing the dose.
