I've recently been prescribed Uptravi 800mcg Tablets for my Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH). I've been doing some research, but I'd love to hear from others who have experience with this medication. How has it improved your symptoms? Have you had any side effects? Are there any tips or advice you wish you'd known before starting? Any insights are welcome!

I started Uptravi a while back, and while it improved my symptoms a lot, I did experience a lot of muscle and joint pain. I was prescribed over-the-counter pain relievers and they helped manage the discomfort.

This sounds intense. Are there any lifestyle changes you had to make while on Uptravi?

I've been on Uptravi for a few months now and it has been a life-saver. My breathing has improved significantly, and I can do more activities without feeling as winded. I did experience some flushing and decreased appetite initially, but it subsided. Overall, the benefits far outweigh the side effects for me. Keep in mind this medication needs careful monitoring, so regular check-ups with your doctor are essential.

Side effects are brutal. I had diarrhea and an upset stomach. I switched to smaller meals throughout the day, which helped a bit. But honestly, the trade-off for being able to breathe better is worth it.
