Description
What is the Angised tablet used for?
It is commonly used for the following conditions:
Angina: Angised tablet is used to treat and prevent angina by dilating the blood vessels and increasing blood flow to the heart muscle. It also helps to reduce the chest pain or discomfort associated with the condition.
Hypertension during cardiac surgery: It is used to control hypertension during cardiac surgery.
Perioperative myocardial ischemia: This tablet is also used to prevent perioperative myocardial ischemia, by dilating the blood vessels during or after surgery, which can reduce the risk of heart damage due to insufficient blood and oxygen supply.
It is important to note that Angised tablets should only be used as prescribed by a doctor, and should not be used to treat sudden, severe chest pain or as a substitute for emergency medical treatment.
Side Effects:
Postural hypotension (drop in blood presssure resulting from change of posture), throbbing headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, flushing, fainting, temporary hypoxemia (decreased oxygen in the blood), rash, application site reactions with transdermal pathches, angle-closure glaucoma, injection site side effects include severe hypotension, sweating, anxiety, restlessness, muscle twitching, chest discomfort, palpitation, abdominal pain, methemoglobinemia (in long term).
Precautions:
Hypothyroidism (decreased thyroid hormones), malnutrition, hypothermia (lower than normal body temperature), recent history of heart attack, heart failure due to obstruction, hypoxemia (low concentration of oxygen in blood) and other ventilation and perfusion abnormalities, susceptibility to angle-closure glaucome, metal containing transdermals should be remonved before MRI procedures, cardioversion (correction of cardiac rhythm), diathermy (heat application to relieve pain), avoid abrupt withdrawal, monitor blood pressure and heart rate during IV infusion.
Effects on pregnancy and lactation:
The effects are undetermined in pregnancy and lactating females; therefore, caution is advised. Consult your healthcare provider before taking this medication.
Contraindications:
Hypersensitivity to nitrates, hypotensive conditions and hypovolemia (decreased blood volume), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (thickened heart muscle), aortic stenosis (narrowing of aorta), cardiac tamponade (compression of heart due to fluid), constructive pericarditis (inflammation of membrane surrounding the heart), mitral stenosis (narrowed mitral valve), toxic pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs), head trauma, cerebral hemorrhage, cerebrovascular disease, marked anemia.
