About Ihd OD 60mg Tablet SR

Isosorbide mononitrate is a nitrate-class drug used for the prophylactic treatment of angina pectoris; that is, it is taken in order to prevent or at least reduce the occurrence of angina. Isosorbide mononitrate dilates (widens) blood vessels, making it easier for blood to flow through them and easier for the heart to pump.Isosorbide mononitrate is used to prevent angina attacks (chest pain). It will not treat an angina attack that has already begun.

Side effects :

  • headache, mild dizziness
  • warmth, redness, or tingling under your skin
  • nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea
  • pain or stiffness in joints or muscles
  • hot flashes
  • dry mouth
  • Pregnancy:Data on the use of isosorbide mononitrate during pregnancy are insufficient to be able to assess the possible harmful effect. Limited data from animal studies indicate no adverse effects on the pregnancy or the unborn child. As precautionary measure, it is preferable to avoid the use of isosorbide mononitrate during pregnancy.

    Breastfeeding:There is data that nitrates are excreted in breast milk and may cause methemoglobinemia in infants. There are no data on passage of isosorbide mononitrate in human milk, but some excretion seems likely. The effects of this exposure on a nursing infant are unknown. As precautionary measure, breast-feeding should be discontinued during treatment with isosorbide mononitrate.

    Contraindications: Isosorbide mononitrate should not be used in cases of acute myocardial infarction with low filling pressure, acute circulatory failure (shock, vascular collapse), or hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), constrictive pericarditis, low cardiac filling pressures, aortic/mitral valve stenosis and diseases associated with a raised intra-cranial pressure e.g following a head trauma and including cerebral haemorrhage.

    Isosorbide mononitrate should not be used in patients with severe anaemia, severe hypotension, closed angle glaucoma or severe hypovolaemia.Isosorbide mononitrate may give rise to postural hypotension and syncope in some patients. Severe postural hypotension with light-headedness and dizziness is frequently observed after the consumption of alcohol. Vascular dilatation can precipitate venous pooling with decreased return to the heart, hypotension and reflex tachycardia. Therefore, oral nitrates should not be used by patients who are sensitive to the effects of hypotension, such as those with pre-existing hypotension, shock, vascular collapse or significant cerebrovascular disease, significant anaemia or hypothyroidism.
