  • How do Nitrates (Nitroglycerin) Work? These direct nitrates are vasodilators that increase cGMP which causes veins to dilate . This causes an increase in oxygen supply to the heart, which reduces angina (chest pain).
    There are 3 main drugs in this class: Nitroglycerin (NitroSTAT), Isosorbide Mononitrate & Isosorbide Dinitrate.. They are all vasodilators. These medications are used to treat and prevent angina pectoris.

    I think, Nitroglycerin reduce preload which mean reduce venous return to the heart and reducing working load of the heart, reducing oxygen demand in myocardium. Dilation of artery will effect coronary arteries thus increase oxygen supply to myocardium.

    Do I need to lock up my nitroglycerin in a cabinet. I’ve been carrying it in my left pocket since I had my heart attack at the age of 36 and I am healthy as a horse when I had my heart attack it was just runs in my family. I have a question and I’m just curious but if you have to take more than Three doses five minutes apart and it hurt you or kill you?

      It can potentially lead to hypotension, which can result in a lack of sufficient oxygen delivered to important parts of the body like your brain. Which is no bueno :/

    • @gottabepablo
      @gottabepablo 2 роки тому +1

      If you have a history of low blood pressure or take ED medication then it’s not recommended to take Nitro. Aside from the fact that it’s also a medication that must be prescribed. Also a side effect are headaches, it really won’t make those go away. I’d talk to your or a doctor before obtaining and taking it.

    • @teknofreak2387
      @teknofreak2387 Рік тому

      I would not, but i also thought about this🤔it expands the blood vessels so it could be used for lifting (like many bodybuilders use viagra to get more pump), but it also would be interesting how it affects sex. Another angina pectoris medication (Amylnitrite) is widely used as „poppers“ cause sex on it feels awesome. Only downside is that it only lasts about one minute, and that you habe to inhale it. Would be interesting if nitroglycerin has similar effects, at least the side effects named in the Video Sound similar😂
