About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Ncrd-OD Tablet PR contains 10mg of Nicorandil as the active ingredient. This medication, a potassium-channel opener and ATP-sensitive K+-channel opener, is primarily used in the management of angina pectoris, a condition characterized by chest pain due to reduced blood flow to the heart. By dilating coronary arteries and reducing platelet aggregation, Nicorandil improves oxygen supply to the heart muscle, thereby alleviating angina symptoms. The tablet formulation provides a convenient dosage form for patients, ensuring easy administration and potential compliance benefits. As with any medication, Ncrd-OD Tablet PR should be used under the supervision of a healthcare professional, and potential drug interactions should be considered to optimize patient safety and treatment efficacy.

About Nicorandil
Nicorandil is a potassium-channel activator used to treat angina pectoris in adults who cannot take beta-blockers. Angina is chest pain due to reduced blood flow to the heart. Nicorandil relaxes and widens blood vessels, improving blood supply to the heart muscle. Its clinical significance lies in reducing angina episodes and improving exercise tolerance. In summary, Nicorandil is essential for managing angina in patients intolerant to other therapies.
How It Works
Nicorandil activates potassium channels in vascular smooth muscle, leading to vasodilation and reduced myocardial oxygen demand.
