Active Ingredient: The active ingredient in Nicostar 5 Tablet is nicorandil.

• Nicorandil is a potassium channel activator.
• Nicorandil works by opening up blood vessels in the heart and throughout the body.
• It relaxes and widens the blood vessels, allowing more blood to flow through.
• This increased blood flow improves the oxygen supply to the heart muscle.
• By improving blood and oxygen delivery to the heart, nicorandil reduces chest pain associated with angina pectoris.
• It also reduces the workload on the heart by dilating blood vessels.
• It helps prevent spasms in the coronary arteries that can lead to chest pain.
