Uses of Nikoran OD 10 mg

Treatment of Angina (heart-related chest pain)

Key benefits

  • In Treatment of Angina (heart-related chest pain) Nikoran OD 10 Tablet PR helps in prevention as well as treatment of angina. Angina is a chest pain that is usually caused by the narrowing of the blood vessels which supply your heart. This means your heart does not get enough oxygen. Nikoran OD 10 Tablet PR relaxes and widens the blood vessels so more blood (and oxygen) gets to your heart. This reduces the pain and discomfort that angina causes thereby improving your ability to exercise and go about your daily life more easily. This medicine needs to be taken regularly to be effective so keep taking it even if you are not having any angina symptoms.

How Nikoran OD 10 mg works

Nikoran OD 10 Tablet PR is a vasodilator. It works by reducing the workload of the heart. As a result, heart muscle does not need as much blood and oxygen supply. It also relaxes coronary artery (that carries blood to heart). This reduces the frequency and severity of angina attacks.
