Myonit Sr 6.4 Tablet 30

Myonit SR 6.4 Tablet is used for the following:

• Prevention of angina pectoris: This helps in reducing the number of angina attacks you may experience.

• Providing instant relief during an angina attack: This medicine can help ease the discomfort during an episode.

• Management of chronic stable angina: This condition is characterised by chest pain or discomfort due to coronary artery disease.

• Control and treatment of coronary artery disease: This disease causes narrowing of the arteries that supply blood and oxygen to your heart.

Here's how you should take Myonit SR 6.4 Tablet:

• Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Chewing or crushing it could release all the medicine at once, increasing the risk of side effects.

• Do not alter your dose without your doctor's advice.

• Don't stop taking this medicine abruptly without consulting your doctor first, since it may lead to withdrawal symptoms.

Myonit SR 6.4 Tablet is taken orally.

Myonit SR 6.4 Tablet contains glyceryl trinitrate (6.4 mg), which acts on the body in the following ways:

• Releases Nitric Oxide: Glyceryl trinitrate releases nitric oxide (NO) in the body. NO is a compound that aids in the relaxation of blood vessels.

• Activates Guanylate Cyclase: The released nitric oxide activates an enzyme in your body known as guanylate cyclase. This enzyme plays a significant role in the dilation of blood vessels.

• Increases cGMP Levels: The activation of guanylate cyclase leads to an increase in cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) levels. High cGMP levels contribute to the relaxation of vascular smooth muscle, further aiding in the dilation of blood vessels, especially veins.

• Enhances Blood Flow: The overall vasodilation effect brought about by glyceryl trinitrate enables blood to flow more easily to the heart muscle, reducing the heart's workload and relieving or preventing angina pain.

• Store your Myonit SR 6.4 Tablet at room temperature, ideally below 30°C.

• Keep it away from direct light and moisture. Avoid storing in the bathroom.

• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children.

• Don't forget to check the expiry date before use.

• To support the management of angina, consider including more heart-healthy foods in your diet. This includes lean meats, whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products.

• Regular physical activity can also help manage coronary artery disease. But remember, always consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen as overexertion can trigger angina pain.
