Common side effects of persantine include nausea, headaches, shortness of breath, and rhythm disturbances in the heart. Persantine can interact with other medications so you should ask your father's physicians about that. However, he seemed to tolerate the test fairly well so presumably no major reaction occurred. Again, you should ask his physician about this problem. I hope you find this information useful.
