Description

Imdur 60mg Tablet contains Isosorbide Mononitrate, a medication used primarily in the prevention and management of angina pectoris (chest pain associated with heart disease). Isosorbide Mononitrate belongs to a class of drugs known as nitrates, which work by relaxing and widening blood vessels, thereby reducing the heart’s workload and improving blood flow. This helps to prevent episodes of angina.

Uses:
  1. Prevention of Angina Pectoris: Imdur is primarily used to prevent angina attacks by improving blood flow to the heart.
  2. Chronic Heart Failure: Sometimes used in combination with other medications to manage chronic heart failure.
  3. Coronary Artery Disease: Helps in the management of coronary artery disease by improving oxygen delivery to the heart muscles.
Side Effects:
  1. Common Side Effects:
    • Headache
    • Dizziness
    • Light-headedness
    • Flushing (warmth, redness, or tingly feeling under the skin)
    • Nausea
  2. Serious Side Effects:
    • Severe hypotension (low blood pressure)
    • Fainting
    • Severe headache
    • Blurred vision
    • Palpitations or irregular heartbeat
    • Allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing)
Precautions:
  1. Allergies: Inform your doctor about any allergies to nitrates or other medications.
  2. Alcohol: Avoid alcohol as it can exacerbate the blood-pressure-lowering effects and increase the risk of side effects.
  3. Low Blood Pressure: Use with caution in patients with hypotension.
  4. Heart Conditions: Inform your healthcare provider if you have any other heart conditions.
  5. Liver or Kidney Disease: Use with caution and under medical supervision if you have liver or kidney disease.

When Not to Use:

  2. Concurrent Use with Certain Medications: Avoid using with phosphodiesterase inhibitors (e.g., sildenafil, tadalafil) as this can cause a severe drop in blood pressure.
  3. Severe Anemia: Not recommended for patients with severe anemia.
  4. Acute Myocardial Infarction: Not suitable for the initial treatment of a heart attack.
