Composition of Alnitro 6.4 mg Tablet

Alnitro 6.4 mg Tablet contains Nitroglycerin (6.4mg). It belongs to the Organic nitrate class of medicines.

Uses of Alnitro 6.4 mg Tablet

Prevention (prophylaxis) of angina pectoris (chest pain) due to coronary artery disease

Benefits of Alnitro 6.4 mg Tablet

In Heart conditions
Alnitro supports the heart's rhythm, blood supply or pumping strength, depending on the condition it was prescribed for. Taken regularly, it reduces symptoms and lowers the chance of a hospital admission.
In Angina
Alnitro improves the blood supply to the heart muscle or reduces its workload, so chest pain comes on less often and you can do more before it starts.
In Irregular heartbeat
Alnitro helps the heart keep a regular rhythm, easing palpitations and the breathlessness or light-headedness that an uneven heartbeat causes.

How Alnitro 6.4 mg Tablet works

Nitroglycerin is converted to nitric oxide in vascular smooth muscle, causing relaxation. This dilates veins and arteries, reducing preload and myocardial oxygen demand and improving coronary blood flow, thereby preventing angina.

How to take Alnitro 6.4 mg Tablet

Take exactly as prescribed. Usually taken by mouth as a prolonged/controlled-release tablet; swallow whole with water—do not crush or chew. Often taken on a regular schedule; may be taken with or without food. Your doctor may advise a daily nitrate-free interval to reduce tolerance.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
