About Us
We are a patient support and educational platform created exclusively for PH patients, and run exclusively by PH patients.
Pulmonary Hypertension India is a collective expression of self-acceptance, resilience, and a strong survival instinct by Indian PHighters.
We are all patients, undestroyed and undefeated veterans, trying to win the war against Pulmonary Hypertension.
Our mission is straightforward. We aim to empower, educate, and enable fellow Indian PHers to make informed decisions and the right choices in dealing with this life-changing condition. We achieve this by prioritizing Knowledge, Access, and Community as our core objectives.
What We Do
Pulmonary Hypertension India is driven by
THREE strong imperatives:
1. To inform the recently diagnosed PH folks and their families that not everything on Google is accurate & that the PH info on the internet is full of nuance. Our message is one of hope based on science.
2. India suffers from an acute dearth of Pulmonary Hypertension specialists with wholesome domain knowledge. But we are here, creating databases, lists, and resources, and generally making life easy for all new patients.
3. There’s power in COMMUNITY. When patients join hands and hearts, magical things happen. Together, we work on PH awareness, enable access to better drugs, build an international support network, and encourage the ecosystem of doctors, scientists, and companies to do better by us.

To determine the optimal medication for your condition, it is crucial to consult with your doctor. Your doctor will consider your specific type of PH, your individual circumstances, and the potential side effects of each medication to make an appropriate recommendation.
Remember, pulmonary hypertension is actually a pretty serious medical condition, so it's super important to make sure you're getting it treated by a qualified healthcare professional. None of the therapies for this condition are available over the counter (OTC), so you'll definitely need a valid and up-to-date prescription to get them. Stay safe and take care!
