My father has heart failure and takes Pulmonext 5 Tablet for shortness of breath, but they are very expensive. Is there a substitute for this medication?
Pulmonext 5 Tablet contains ambrisentan, which is used for pulmonary arterial hypertension and should not be changed without medical advice. It is available as a more affordable generic version. Consult your father?s doctor, who can safely switch his prescription to a generic alternative or discuss other classes of medication, such as sildenafil, if appropriate for his condition.
