WHAT ADEMPAS IS
USED FOR
Adempas is used to treat adults
with high blood pressure in the
lung vessels caused by:
•
blood clots in the lungs
(known as chronic
thromboembolic pulmonary
hypertension or CTEPH)
•
narrowing of the vessels that
carry blood from the heart to
the lungs (known as
pulmonary arterial
hypertension or PAH)
If the high blood pressure in the
lung vessels is caused by
CTEPH it can sometimes be
treated with surgery. Adempas
may be used if surgery is not
possible or if there is still high
blood pressure in the lung
vessels after surgery.
High blood pressure in the lung
vessels means that the heart
needs to work harder to pump
blood through the lungs. This
may cause you to feel tired,
dizzy and short of breath.
Adempas contains the active
substance riociguat. Riociguat
is a soluble guanylate cyclase
(sGC)-stimulator.
Adempas relaxes the lung
vessels making it easier for the
heart to pump blood through
them. This lowers the pressure
in these vessels, relieves the
symptoms, and can lead to an
improvement in the ability to
exercise and perform physical
tasks.
ASK YOUR DOCTOR IF YOU HAVE
ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT WHY THIS
MEDICINE HAS BEEN PRESCRIBED
FOR YOU.

prescribed it for another reason.
This medicine is only available
