Active composition
Isosorbide Mononitrate releases nitric oxide, leading to vasodilation and reduced myocardial oxygen demand.
Medical applications
Monotrate OD Tablet PR is a prescription medicine indicated for the treatment of angina pectoris, specifically for the relief of persistent exercise-induced angina. Each tablet contains 50mg of Isosorbide Mononitrate, a nitrate derivative that acts as a vasodilator, reducing the frequency and severity of anginal episodes. The oral controlled-release (OD) formulation allows for sustained release of the active moiety, providing a prolonged therapeutic effect.
The mechanism of action involves the relaxation of vascular smooth muscle, leading to increased blood flow to the ischemic myocardium. Monotrate OD Tablet PR is contraindicated in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to Isosorbide Mononitrate, and caution should be exercised in patients with hypovolemia, hypertension, or hypotension. Common side effects include headache, flushing, dizziness, and nausea.
The recommended dose is one tablet taken twice daily, ideally at morning and evening meals.
