@A myPHteam Member, is so right. I take Orenetram and it messes with me all the time. I have to take it though so, I take Benadryl. with it. They put me on a different medication at first and I can't remember the name of it. That was even worse for me so I had to choose which to take. I am learning that sometimes I have to find a way to deal with it and move on. I am not going to let is take control. Not yet anyway.

Joan, there are a lot of side effects to most PAH medications. Most, fortunately, are short term. The trick is learning how to manage the side effects. Without medications, PAH will definitely win in the long run. I don't feel that I have any other option than to embrace the medications.

Hi Joan from NJ! It's not uncommon for people to experience different side effects when starting a new medication. According to the information in the knowledge base, common side effects of Adcirca (Tadalafil) include headaches, but it doesn't specifically mention increased shortness of breath as a common side effect Show Full Answer

Hi Joan from NJ! It's not uncommon for people to experience different side effects when starting a new medication. According to the information in the knowledge base, common side effects of Adcirca (Tadalafil) include headaches, but it doesn't specifically mention increased shortness of breath as a common side effect. However, everyone's experience can be different. If you're feeling more out of breath, it's important to discuss this with your healthcare provider to ensure it's not a sign of something more serious.

Very Happy To Be Able To Speak With Others With The Same PAH As I Have. Are You Meds Really Expensive Like Mine Are?
