Nitroglycerin Products

Nitroglycerin is a liquid, tablet, or patch that is placed on the skin. It is used to prevent chest pain (angina) in people with heart disease. It is also used to relieve heart pain and to improve the chance of survival after a heart attack. Nitroglycerin relaxes (widens) the blood vessels and improves blood flow to the heart. Nitroglycerin sprays work by delivering a dose of nitroglycerin to the blood stream through the lungs. The nitroglycerin is absorbed into the blood and begins to work quickly to widen the blood vessels and improve blood flow. This helps to prevent angina attacks and can also help to relieve symptoms of an attack that has already started. Nitroglycerin is a medication most commonly used to relieve chest pain caused by angina. It can be taken as a tablet, ointment, or patch. The ointment and tablet forms are for topical use only on the skin, while the patch is for transdermal use, meaning it is placed on the skin and then worn. The nitroglycerin in the patch is slowly absorbed through the skin and enters the bloodstream. This allows for a gradual release of the medication, which prevents the sudden spikes in blood pressure that can occur with other forms of nitroglycerin.
