Glyceryl Trinitrate Tablets 500mcg – 100 Tablets
Fast-Acting Relief and Prevention of Angina Pectoris
Glyceryl Trinitrate (GTN) tablets 500mcg are an effective solution for the rapid relief and prevention of angina pectoris, a type of chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. GTN belongs to the nitrate class of medications, which work by relaxing and dilating the blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily to the heart. This action reduces the heart's workload and increases the oxygen supply to the heart muscle, providing quick relief from the discomfort of angina. Designed for sublingual administration, GTN tablets dissolve quickly under the tongue, ensuring rapid absorption and fast relief during an angina attack or before engaging in activities that may trigger angina.
Key Benefits
- Rapid Relief of Angina: Glyceryl Trinitrate tablets provide fast and effective relief from the chest pain associated with angina pectoris. By dilating the blood vessels, these tablets improve blood flow to the heart, helping to alleviate the pain and discomfort of angina quickly.
- Prevention of Angina Attacks: GTN tablets can also be used prophylactically before physical exertion or stressful situations to prevent the onset of angina. This makes them a valuable tool for individuals with known coronary artery disease who need to manage their condition effectively.
- Sublingual Administration for Quick Absorption: These tablets are designed for sublingual use, meaning they dissolve under the tongue. This method allows for rapid absorption into the bloodstream, ensuring that relief is delivered as quickly as possible when it is most needed.
- Trusted and Effective Treatment: Widely used in the management of angina, Glyceryl Trinitrate tablets are a trusted option for both acute treatment and prevention of angina attacks, offering peace of mind to those at risk.
- Convenient Dosage: Each tablet contains 500mcg of glyceryl trinitrate, providing a precise dose that is easy to take and control, ensuring effective management of symptoms.
Usage Instructions
To use Glyceryl Trinitrate tablets effectively, follow these steps:
- Administer Sublingually: At the onset of an angina attack, or just before engaging in an activity that may trigger angina, place one tablet under your tongue.
- Allow to Dissolve: Let the tablet dissolve completely under your tongue. Do not chew, swallow, or crush the tablet.
- Sit Down: It is advisable to sit down while taking the tablet, as GTN can cause dizziness or a sudden drop in blood pressure.
- Repeat if Necessary: If the angina pain persists after 5 minutes, you may take a second tablet. If the pain continues after three tablets (15 minutes), seek immediate medical attention.
- Follow Prescribed Use: Use the tablets as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Do not exceed the recommended dosage.

Safety and Precautions
While Glyceryl Trinitrate tablets are effective in managing angina, it is important to consider the following precautions:
- Consult Your Healthcare Provider: Before using GTN tablets, discuss your full medical history with your healthcare provider, especially if you have low blood pressure, recent heart attack, or are taking other medications.
- Monitor for Side Effects: Common side effects may include headache, dizziness, flushing, and a rapid heartbeat. If you experience severe side effects, or if your angina worsens, seek medical attention immediately.
- Avoid Alcohol: Alcohol can enhance the blood pressure-lowering effects of GTN, which may increase the risk of dizziness or fainting.
