Uses of Seleg Injection

Benefits of Seleg Injection

Treatment of Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) can cause shortness of breath, tiredness, dizziness, chest pain and swelling in your ankles and legs. It is caused by thickening of walls of the arteries that supply your lungs making it hard for blood to get through. Seleg 10mg Injection relaxes and widens blood vessels in the lungs. This helps reduce the strain on the heart and improves blood flow, leading to lowered blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries. By easing the workload on the heart and enhancing circulation, Seleg 10mg Injection can improve exercise capacity, reduce symptoms like shortness of breath and fatigue, and enhance the overall quality of life for individuals with PAH.

Side effects of Seleg Injection

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

How Seleg Injection works

Seleg 10mg Injection is a phosphodiesterase (PDE-5) inhibitor. It works by relaxing the blood vessels in your lungs thereby reducing the high blood pressure in the lungs. This allows your heart to work less to pump blood in your lungs.

Quick tips

  • Seleg 10mg Injection is used to treat high pressure in the blood vessels that carry blood from the heart to the lungs (the pulmonary arteries).
  • It can help improve your quality of life and exercise ability.
  • Seleg 10mg Injection may cause dizziness or sleepiness. Don't drive or do anything requiring concentration until you know how it affects you.
  • Do not use other medicines (nitrates or nitroglycerin) when taking Seleg 10mg Injection as it could drop your blood pressure to a dangerous level.
  • Do not consume alcohol while taking Seleg 10mg Injection as that may increase the blood pressure-lowering effects of Seleg 10mg Injection.
  • Stop taking Seleg 10mg Injection and immediately inform your doctor if you notice loss of vision in one or both eyes or sudden loss of hearing with ringing sensation in your ear.
  • If you have an erection, which lasts continuously for more than 4 hours, stop taking Seleg 10mg Injection and contact your doctor immediately.
