Nitrostat

Nitrostat is a medication that contains nitroglycerin, used to relieve chest pain caused by heart problems, known as angina. It works by relaxing and widening blood vessels, which improves blood flow to the heart and reduces the heart’s workload. Typically, Nitrostat is taken as a small tablet placed under the tongue, where it dissolves quickly for rapid relief. It’s important to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions carefully, as improper use can lead to side effects or decreased effectiveness. Nitrostat is a crucial medication for managing angina and preventing heart attacks.
