Usage Information
ProAmatine® is indicated for the treatment of symptomatic orthostatic hypotension (OH). Because ProAmatine® can cause marked elevation of supine blood pressure (BP>200 mmHg systolic), it should be used in patients whose lives are considerably impaired despite standard clinical care, including non-pharmacologic treatment (such as support stockings), fluid expansion, and lifestyle alterations. The indication is based on ProAmatine®'s effect on increases in 1-minute standing systolic blood pressure, a surrogate marker considered likely to correspond to a clinical benefit. At present, however, clinical benefits of ProAmatine®, principally improved ability to perform life activities, have not been established. Further clinical trials are underway to verify and describe the clinical benefits of ProAmatine®.After initiation of treatment, ProAmatine® should be continued only for patients who report significant symptomatic improvement.
