I've recently been prescribed Veletri 1.5mg Inj, which contains Epoprostenol, for my pulmonary hypertension. This medication is administered continuously through a vein and helps relax blood vessels in the lungs, making it easier to breathe. I'm curious to know if anyone else has been prescribed this medication and what their experiences have been. The side effect list is quite extensive, and I'm a bit nervous about potential complications. Has anyone had issues with bleeding or allergic reactions? How has the medication affected your daily life and exercise abilities? Any tips on managing side effects or dealing with the continuous infusion would be greatly appreciated. It's been a challenging adjustment, and hearing from others who have gone through the same thing could be really helpful.
