does letairis can lower the platelets ? any remedy ? Combination of Letairis and Adcirca has lowered my pulmonary pressure from 80 to 45.
I been taking Letaris since 2007. Thank God the only side effect is stuffy nose. Nothing else. So far so good.

I read the pages of side effects for uitravi and made the decision NOT to take it. I take Ambrisentan and love it!!! Taken since 2019 with Tadalafil.

Opsumit did not work for me at all . I took it for 2 weeks & had to stop as I was very short of breath
How do I know the drugs are working
Yes, I agree as well. You should talk to your doctor. You should be able to tell a difference from before you started taking the meds - if it’s been long enough.😊
