1 | pulmonary hypertension | terrible headaches, migraine-level which started about 30 minutes after taking the tablet every day. | Letairis lowered my pulmonary pressure by 10 points (which was not nearly enough) but the headaches were debilitating so after 6 months, my doctor took me off Letairis. I stayed on the other 2 pulmonary hypertension meds I was on. | F | 60 | 6 months 20 mg 1X day | 1/2/2017 |
LETAIRIS (AMBRISENTAN): Ambrisentan is used to treat high blood pressure in the lungs (pulmonary arterial hypertension). This condition is thought to be caused by increased levels of a certain natural substance (endothelin-1). This medication blocks the effects of endothelin-1, thereby helping to decrease the blood pressure in the lungs, slow the worsening of symptoms, and improve your ability to exercise.
