For peripheral arterial disease, the usual dose is 75 mg two to three times a day.
Side Effects
Side effects such as drowsiness and stomach or digestive upset are extremely rare. They tend to pass on their own and can usually be avoided by increasing the dose gradually to the right level. Allergic skin reactions and tiredness have been reported on rare occasions. In elderly people on prolonged treatment, worsening or new onset of Parkinson's-like symptoms (such as stiffness or tremor) has been reported very rarely. In such cases, treatment should be reduced or stopped.
