About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Nicovil 10mg Tablet, containing Nicorandil 10mg as the active ingredient, is a prescription medication primarily used for the treatment of angina pectoris, a condition characterized by chest pain due to insufficient blood supply to the heart. Nicorandil serves a dual function by acting as a vasodilator, relaxing the blood vessels to improve blood flow, and as a potassium channel opener, enhancing oxygen supply to the heart. It is essential to adhere to the prescribed dosage and frequency, and consult a healthcare professional for proper administration and potential interactions with other medications. Potential side effects may include headache, flushing, and dizziness, which typically subside with continued use. Patients should inform their doctor of any pre-existing medical conditions or ongoing medication regimens prior to initiating treatment with Nicovil 10mg Tablet.

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.
