Product information
About
Nicostar 5mg from Lupin contains nicorandil in a lower strength, often used at the start of therapy or for people sensitive to its effects. It is a potassium channel opener with nitrate-like action used to prevent angina chest pain.
Uses
- Prevention of angina attacks
- Starting dose for new patients on nicorandil
- Add-on with other anti-anginal medicines
How it works
Nicorandil widens the arteries supplying the heart and the veins returning blood to it, which lowers the heart's workload and improves its oxygen supply. Over time, this lessens the frequency and intensity of angina episodes.
How to take
Take as prescribed by your doctor, usually twice a day with water, and at evenly spaced times. Do not stop the medicine suddenly without medical advice.
Side effects
- Headache
- Flushing
- Dizziness
- Painful ulcers in the mouth, gut, or skin in rare cases
Precautions
Avoid combining with sildenafil, tadalafil, or other ED medicines, as the drop in blood pressure can be severe. Tell your doctor about heart failure, low blood pressure, or any unhealed ulcer.
Storage
Store below 25 degrees Celsius in a dry place, away from light. Keep out of reach of children.
