摘要
Effective pharmacological options for peripheral arterial disease are limited. For intermittent claudication that persists despite exercise training, cilostazol is the first-line therapy and pentoxifylline is a second-line option, while the agents potentially useful for critical limb ischaemia when revascularization is unsuitable include cilostazol and prostaglandins. Cardiovascular risk factors should be modified in all patients. © 2013 Springer International Publishing Switzerland.
