Nitroglycerin, 3 drops of which correspond to 0.5 mg nitroglycerin,
concluded in one tablet, 1 percent oil solution
Nitroglycerin in capsules containing 0.5 mg or 1.0 mg nitroglycerin.

Nitroglycerin also put under the tongue or on a small piece of sugar,
Nitroglycerin analgesic effect when attacking angina
due to rapid and pronounced expansion of small vessels of the skin, muscles,
Abdominal organs, accompanied by a cluster of blood in them,
a decrease in its inflow to heart, resulting in work
Hearts and decreases the need of myocardium in oxygen.
At the same time nitroglycerin removes the spasm of coronary
Arteries and increases blood flow to myocardium. All this contributes
rapid restoration of broken balance between the need
heart muscle in oxygen and his influx by coronary arteries and those
The most eliminates myocardial ischemia.
However, sometimes when taking the drug there are side
Effects. There are also cases of increased individual

Blood inflow to the brain and the appearance of symptoms of fainting. When
A man sits and lies, a favorable conditions are created to increase
Return of blood from peripheral vessels to the heart and increasing volume
The blood emitted in the aorta. It warns a sharp decline

Nitroglycerin can be taken every five minutes -
painful attack will not stop, but not more than three tablets in 15 minutes.
The action of nitroglycerin continues briefly, only 10-15 minutes.
Therefore, it can be taken within a day many times. Cases are described
reception 40 nitroglycerin tablets per day, although recommended it
Daily dose of 6 tablets (3,6 mg.),
When taking nitroglycerin, quite often occur

Nitroglycerin solution. Receiving two or one drop 1 percent
Nitroglycerin alcohol solution on a piece of sugar can interrupt
Stenokard attack without causing headaches and other side symptoms.
If this dose of the drug causes headaches, then start
Combined application of a 1% nitroglycerin solution and
3 percent alcohol mentol solution in different proportions. How
Research B.E. Voice, Menthol simultaneously serves
solvent and enhances nitroglycerin. Thus,
chosen such a medical dose nitroglycerin, which interrupts
attack of angina, but does not cause headaches.
