Pentoxifylline(Cat No.:I000055)is a methylxanthine derivative used primarily to improve blood flow in conditions like peripheral artery disease and intermittent claudication. By increasing red blood cell flexibility and reducing blood viscosity, it enhances microcirculation and oxygen delivery to tissues, easing pain and improving walking capacity. Additionally, pentoxifylline possesses anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects, making it useful in various vascular and inflammatory disorders. Its therapeutic versatility has extended its application to chronic kidney disease, liver disease, and wound healing research, supporting its role in vascular health and systemic inflammatory conditions.
