Nitroglycerin is a vasodilator drug used for the treatment of chest pain and high blood pressure. 1213 It was first approved in 2000 and is currently marketed by Pfizer and other companies depending on the dosage form. 1215 Nitroglycerin is available in various forms including a spray form sublingual tablet form.
Only the smallest dose required for effective relief of the acute angina attack should be used.

Severe hypotension particularly with upright posture may occur with small doses of nitroglycerin particularly in patients with constrictive pericarditis aortic or mitral stenosis.
Nitroglycerin is a vasodilatory drug used primarily to provide relief from anginal chest pain. It is currently FDA approved for the acute relief of an attack or acute prophylaxis of angina pectoris secondary to coronary artery disease. Off-label non-FDA-approved uses include treatment for hypertensive urgencyemergency coronary artery spasm angina secondary to cocaine use congestive.
Nitroglycerin is a nitroglycerol that is glycerol in which the hydrogen atoms of all three hydroxy groups are replaced by nitro groups. It acts as a prodrug releasing nitric oxide to open blood vessels and so alleviate heart pain. It has a role as a vasodilator agent a nitric oxide donor an explosive a prodrug a tocolytic agent a muscle relaxant and a xenobiotic.
Major Two separate studies have shown that concomitant administration of IV nitroglycerin can compromise the therapeutic efficacy of alteplase. In one study reperfusion occurred in 91 of patients receiving alteplase without nitroglycerin while only 44 of patients receiving alteplase with nitroglycerin were reperfused however this was an uncontrolled study.

The following directions for use. Nitrolingual Pumpspray is a metered dose spray which delivers 48 mg of solution containing 400 mcg of nitroglycerin with each spray.
Nitroglycerin is absorbed from the tongue and surrounding mucosa producing a prompt therapeutic effect. It is best to use NitrolingualPumpspray in a sitting position. Therapeutic doses of nitroglycerin may reduce systolic diastolic and mean arterial blood pressure.
Effective coronary perfusion pressure is usually maintained but can be compromised if blood pressure falls excessively or increased heart rate decreases diastolic filling time. Elevated central venous and pulmonary capillary wedge pressures and pulmonary and systemic vascular resistance are. The main effect is drop in systemic blood pressure.
It compensates by increasing blood flow to healthy arteries and veins because affected vessels already lose their elasticity. May be used only for congenital heart defects and cardiac surgery because they can cause potentially dangerous changes in blood pressure. Should be educated on drug.
