Cosaldon is a combined preparation which contains 50 mg nicotinic acid and 200 mg 1-hexyl-3, 7-dimethylxanthine in each tablet. The makers recommend it for use in a wide variety of central and peripheral vascular disorders and in particular as a ‘dual action treatment for cerebral ischaemia’.

Many drugs are claimed to be effective vasodilators which can improve blood flow in peripheral vascular disorders. Among them are noradrenaline antagonists such as tolazoline (Priscol - Ciba), azapetine (Ilidar - Roche) and phenoxybenzamine (Dibenyline - SKF), and drugs which act directly on the smooth muscle of blood vessels, such as isoxsuprine (Duvadilan - Crookes; Dilavase - Organon), nicotinyl alcohol (Ronicol - Roche), and cyclandelate (Cyclospasmol - Camden). Nicotinic acid, papaverine and ethyl alcohol are also used as vasodilators. Claims that cyclandelate and certain other drugs are indicated in the treatment of cerebrovascular disease will be discussed in a future issue.
