The drug was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) on January 20, 2021.

So, what is the dosage of Vericiguat?

Vericiguat is available in 2.5 mg; 5 mg; 10 mg. The recommended starting dose is 2.5 mg taken orally with food every day. The dose of veliciguat should be doubled approximately every 2 weeks to achieve the patient's target maintenance dose of 10 mg per day. For patients who have difficulty swallowing, the tablets may be crushed and mixed with water. Do not increase or decrease the dosage of the medicine at will. You must follow the doctor's advice. Common adverse reactions of this drug are hypotension and anemia, and it is contraindicated in patients taking other soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) stimulators.
