    After suffering through Tyvaso for 7months I was put on Orenatran. Immediate awful side effects. Loss of appetite lost 16lbs in 3wks, severe back pain, headaches, total loss of energy, nausea. I was weaned off of it and will not go with any other drugs besides silenafil and opsumit. I can handle being tired.

    I only want to say, DO NOT TAKE THIS DRUG. It will kill you. My husband was on it for just about six months. He is now on hospice care.
