Pentoxifylline Treatment Report
What is Pentoxifylline?
Pentoxifylline is used to improve blood flow in patients with circulation problems to reduce aching, cramping, and tiredness in the hands and feet. By decreasing the thickness (viscosity) of blood, your blood can flow more easily, especially in the small blood vessels of the hands and feet.
