Cilostazol is a selective and reversible phosphodiesterase-III (PDE-III) inhibitor. By inhibiting PDE-III, it increases cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels in platelets and blood vessels. This action helps prevent platelet aggregation and promotes vasodilation, resulting in improved blood circulation, especially in the lower extremities.

Cilosta 100 is prescribed for the management of intermittent claudication, a condition caused by reduced blood circulation to the legs. It helps relieve symptoms such as leg pain, cramping, numbness, and weakness that occur during walking by improving blood flow to the lower limbs. Cilosta 100 widens blood vessels and reduces platelet stickiness, thereby improving blood flow to the legs and reducing symptoms associated with poor circulation.
