Angistat 2.5 Capsule 25

Angistat 2.5 Capsule is used for the following:

• Preventing angina pectoris: This is chest pain caused by diminished blood flow to the heart.

• Providing quick relief during attacks of angina pectoris.

• Managing spasms in the heart's blood vessels caused by blockages.

Here are instructions for taking Angistat 2.5 Capsule:

• Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water, do not chew or crush it.

• Take the capsule as soon as you feel an angina attack coming on or before activities that could trigger an attack.

• Seek immediate medical attention if your chest pain continues even after taking the recommended dose.

Angistat 2.5 Capsule is taken orally.

Angistat 2.5 Capsule contains Glyceryl Trinitrate / Nitroglycerin (2.5 Mg), which exerts its effects in the body through the following mechanisms:

• Nitric Oxide Donor: The glyceryl trinitrate acts as a nitric oxide donor, releasing nitric oxide into your body.

• Activation of Guanylate Cyclase: The released nitric oxide activates an enzyme called guanylate cyclase, which increases the production of another substance called cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP).

• Vasodilation: Elevated levels of cGMP cause relaxation of your blood vessel walls, leading to widening of veins and arteries, a process known as vasodilation.

• Reduced Heart Workload: The resulting vasodilation reduces the workload on your heart and improves blood flow to your heart muscle, effectively managing symptoms of angina pectoris.

• Store Angistat 2.5 Capsule at room temperature, ideally below 30°C.

• Keep the container tightly closed to protect the capsules from moisture and light.

• Always keep this medicine out of the reach of children.

• Check the expiry date on the pack, and make sure you use it before this date.

• If you're managing angina pectoris with Angistat 2.5 Capsule, try adopting a low-fat, low-sodium diet. This can help prevent further heart disease and improve blood flow to your heart.

• Regular moderate exercise can help increase your heart's efficiency. However, always consult your doctor about the right type and amount of physical activity for you.
