Mechanism of Action

Nitroglycerin works by converting to nitric oxide in the body, which is a potent vasodilator. This vasodilation effect causes the relaxation of vascular smooth muscles, leading to the widening of blood vessels. As a result, there is decreased myocardial oxygen demand and an increased supply of blood and oxygen to the heart muscle, bringing relief from anginal pain swiftly.

2. Take one Nitroglycerin Sublingual Tablet from the bottle.
