Scientific Evidence
- Isosorbide mononitrate, the active ingredient in Monosan, is a vasodilator that works by relaxing the blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood. This mechanism of action helps reduce the workload on the heart and improves blood flow to the heart muscle, relieving angina symptoms.
- Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of isosorbide mononitrate in the treatment of angina pectoris. A study published in the European Heart Journal showed that isosorbide mononitrate significantly increased exercise tolerance and reduced the frequency of angina attacks in patients with stable angina.
Additional Information
- It is important to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions carefully when taking Monosan. Do not suddenly stop taking the medication without consulting your doctor, as this can lead to a rebound effect and worsening of angina symptoms.
- If you experience any side effects while taking Monosan, such as headaches, dizziness, or nausea, contact your healthcare provider for further guidance.
