Adult: Dosage must be individualised according to clinical response. Prophylaxis and long-term treatment: As immediate-release tab: 20 mg 2 or 3 times daily. Dose may range from 20-120 mg daily in divided doses. Prophylaxis: As extended-release/prolonged-release tab or cap: Initially, 30-60 mg once daily in the morning. Doses may be increased to 120 mg once daily if necessary. Use the lowest effective dose.
Oral Congestive heart failure
Adult: Adjunctive therapy in cases not responding to cardiac glycosides and/or diuretics: As immediate-release tab: 20 mg 2 or 3 times daily depending on individual needs and continuous haemodynamic monitoring.
Cách dùng
Should be taken on an empty stomach.
Chống chỉ định
Severe hypotension, hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy, constrictive pericarditis, cardiac tamponade, aortic or mitral valve stenosis, acute circulatory failure/shock, circulatory collapse, cardiogenic shock, acute MI with low left ventricular filling pressure, conditions associated with increased intracranial pressure (e.g. cerebral haemorrhage, head trauma), closed-angle glaucoma, marked anaemia, hypovolaemia. Concomitant use with phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) inhibitors (e.g. sildenafil) or riociguat.

Chỉ số theo dõi
Monitor blood pressure and heart rate.
Quá liều
Symptoms: Hypotension, headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, excitation, tachycardia, sweating, syncope, vertigo, restlessness, flushing, blurred vision, confusion, increased intracranial pressure, and neurological deficits. Rarely, methaemoglobinaemia in very high doses. Management: Symptomatic treatment. Administer activated charcoal within 1 hour of ingesting toxic doses; perform gastric lavage if necessary. To treat hypotension, place the patient in a supine position with the legs raised; administer normal saline IV infusion as necessary. For severe hypotension, may administer inotropes (e.g. dopamine, dobutamine). In case of methaemoglobinaemia, give 1-2 mg/kg IV methylene blue.
Tương tác
Increased risk of orthostatic hypotension with Ca channel blockers. Additive hypotensive effect with other vasodilators, β-blockers, angiotensin II receptor antagonists, ACE inhibitors, aldesleukin, alprostadil, and TCAs. May increase the plasma levels and hypertensive effects of dihydroergotamine. Potentially Fatal: Severe hypotension may occur when used with PDE-5 inhibitors (e.g. sildenafil, tadalafil, vardenafil) or riociguat.
Tương tác với thức ăn
Increased risk of hypotension with alcohol. May reduce the rate but not the extent of absorption with food.

Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Isosorbide mononitrate is a vasodilator and the major active metabolite of isosorbide dinitrate. It serves as an exogenous source of nitric oxide which causes vascular smooth muscle relaxation and consequent dilation of peripheral arteries and veins. This effect decreases the left and right ventricular end-diastolic pressures and volume, thereby improving the subendocardial blood flow. Onset: Within 20-45 minutes. Duration: ≥6 hours (immediate-release); ≥12-24 hours (extended-release). Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Readily and completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. May reduce the rate but not the extent of absorption with food. Bioavailability: Approx 100%. Time to peak plasma concentration: 30-60 minutes. Distribution: Distributed into the blood cells and saliva. Volume of distribution: Approx 0.6 L/kg. Plasma protein binding: <5%. Metabolism: Metabolised in the liver into nitric oxide (active) and other inactive metabolites, such as isosorbide and isosorbide glucuronide. Excretion: Mainly via urine (2% as unchanged drug); faeces (1%). Elimination half-life: Approx 5 hours.
