glyceryl trinitrate / 50mg / 10ml / box of 5

DESCRIPTION:

Glyceryl trinitrate, available in a 50mg/10mL formulation, is a medication commonly used to relieve and prevent episodes of chest pain or angina in individuals with coronary artery disease.

• Active Ingredient: Each dose of Glyceryl Trinitrate contains 50mg of the active ingredient, glyceryl trinitrate. This compound acts as a vasodilator, meaning it relaxes and widens blood vessels, leading to increased blood flow to the heart muscle, which can relieve angina symptoms.
• Indications: Glyceryl Trinitrate is primarily indicated for the management of angina pectoris, a type of chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. It is used to both treat acute episodes of angina and prevent future episodes.
• Dosage and Administration: The medication is typically administered sublingually (under the tongue) using a spray or dropper provided with each dose. Patients are instructed to spray or place the prescribed dose under the tongue and allow it to dissolve. The dosage may vary depending on the severity of symptoms and individual response, but it is usually recommended to follow the healthcare provider's instructions closely.
