When you buy these tablets and commence treatment they work by relaxing blood vessels, so that blood passes through them more easily. In patients with angina, these tablets work by improving blood supply to the heart muscle which then receives more oxygen and as a result chest pain is prevented.
We advise that you consult with either your prescriber or GP before you use these tablets.
Whenever you buy these tablets online, or from your local pharmacy, swallow the medication whole with a drink of water, before or after food. It is usually taken once daily, taken at the same time each day. Do not take these tablets with grapefruit juice, as this can increase the chance of side effects.
This medication is generally prescribed in 5mg tablets, but your doctor may adjust your dosage to as high as 10mg tablets. Taking too many of these tablets can cause you to feel dizzy, lightheaded, weak or faint. Your skin may feel cool or clammy. Seek immediate medical attention if you take too many of these tablets.
Always take your medication exactly as prescribed by your doctor or pharmacist.
