Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
Starting dose of 2.5 mg taken orally once daily with food, on a background of standard of care. Dose will be uptitrated to 5 mg and to 10 mg.
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
Studies on the in vitro effects of Vericiguat on highly purified sGC (soluble guanylate cyclase) revealed that Vericiguat (0.01 uM to 100 uM) stimulates recombinant sGC concentration dependently, by 1.7-fold to 57.6-fold.
