About Trental

Overview

Trental contains pentoxifylline, a prescription medicine supplied as extended-release tablets. It treats intermittent claudication caused by long-term blockage of arteries in the limbs and may improve symptoms and function. It works by affecting blood viscosity, or how thick the blood is. It does not replace treatments such as bypass surgery or procedures to remove arterial blockages.

What it treats

Intermittent claudication caused by chronic narrowing or blockage of arteries in the limbs.

Safety information

Side effects

The more frequently reported side effects in pentoxifylline extended-release tablet studies included indigestion, nausea, dizziness, vomiting and headache. Gas, bloating, belching and tremor were also reported. Contact a doctor promptly for chest pain, a fast or irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, swelling, confusion or seizures. Other serious reports have included low blood pressure, inflammation around the brain and spinal cord without infection, liver inflammation, jaundice, reduced blood cell counts and other blood disorders. Severe allergic reactions, including swelling beneath the skin and life-threatening allergic shock, have also been reported and warrant immediate medical help. Other reported effects include constipation, dry mouth, itching, rash, hives and vision changes. Many effects reported outside the tablet studies, including the rare serious reactions, could not be clearly linked to pentoxifylline.

When to call your doctor

- Chest pain or a fast or irregular heartbeat. - Trouble breathing or sudden swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat. - Seizures. - Yellowing of the skin or eyes. - Unexplained bruising or purple spots on the skin.

If symptoms are severe or getting worse quickly, seek emergency care rather than waiting.

Before taking this medicine

Do not take Trental (pentoxifylline) if you have recently had bleeding in the brain or retina, or if you have previously had an intolerance to pentoxifylline or other methylxanthines, such as caffeine, theophylline or theobromine.

Interactions

Bleeding has been reported with pentoxifylline, both alone and when taken with NSAIDs, anticoagulants (blood thinners) or antiplatelet medicines. Vitamin K antagonist anticoagulants may have a stronger effect when taken with pentoxifylline. Your doctor should monitor their blood-thinning effect when pentoxifylline is started or its dose is changed. Pentoxifylline can increase theophylline levels and cause theophylline toxicity in some people. Theophylline levels should be monitored when pentoxifylline is started or its dose is changed. Ciprofloxacin, fluvoxamine and other strong CYP1A2 inhibitors may increase pentoxifylline levels. Cimetidine can also increase levels of pentoxifylline and one of its breakdown products. Small falls in blood pressure have been seen when pentoxifylline is taken with nifedipine or captopril. If you take blood pressure medicines, your doctor should check your blood pressure periodically and may need to adjust those medicines.
