DO YOU HAVE CIRCULATION PROBLEMS THAT CAUSE PAIN IN YOUR LEGS WHEN YOU WALK?

Or

DO YOU TAKE TRENTAL® OR PLETAL®

If you have muscle pain in one or both legs when you walk, and the pain goes away quickly when you rest, you may have a problem called intermittent claudication. This problem is caused by peripheral artery disease (PAD), or blocked blood flow to your
leg(s). If you have PAD, you are at greater risk for a heart attack or stroke.

If you are between 40 and 85 years old, have pain in your leg muscles related to PAD, and do not take insulin or Actos (pioglitazone) for diabetes, you may qualify for a research study. The study involves 5-8 visits to Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston over a 4-5 month period.

Compensation and complimentary parking are available.
