Side Effects for Adempas (riociguat)

Every possible G.I.problem. Gerd,constipation,nausea,dyspepsia, etc.Anxiety.

My quality of life has severely decreased.

The doctors constantly want to raise the dosage. I was satisfied on 1 mg. They took it to 1.5 mg then 2 mg. I'm back on 1.5 mg and plan on asking to be placed on 1 mg. or something else.

Nausea, heartburn, constipation, vomiting.

ADEMPAS (RIOCIGUAT): Riociguat is used to treat high blood pressure in the lungs (pulmonary hypertension). It can also be used to treat a certain type of high blood pressure in the lungs caused by blood clots (chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension) when surgery has not been fully successful or is impossible. Riociguat works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels in your lungs so blood can flow more easily. Decreasing high blood pressure in the lungs allows your heart and lungs to work better and improves your ability to exercise. (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

ive taken this before no problems then this time bam! Instant headaches and dizziness on last day of taking this bad back and leg pain as well as elbow and hand swelling im sensitive to other anti biotics except keflex will gp back to that. This crap is poison!

After taking this for almost three months I started getting dizzy/light headed spells. My doc didn't think it was the spray, but all my bloodwork came back clear. I think it is the spray.

Very bad itching all back and abdomen with red spots here and there that after taking Benadryl disappear. Itching went better, then, after a week came back very bad. Very bad reaction. Took before without such reactions

My son became so anxiey ridden he was unable to go to school, he cried and was depressed day and night, tried to hurt himself and he couldn't tell us why? We were in counseling and were about ready to try an antidepressant. The night before I was going to give it I searched this site. Thank the Lord. I stopped the Singular. It was the worst 6 months of his life. After 3 weeks off this horrible drug, he was finally getting better mentally. And his moods/altered mind set lingered for atleast 6 more months. DO NOT GIVE THIS TO YOUR CHILD. And the doctor still wanted to try it again??, I refused. There are other drugs to try.
