Nitroday 2.5 Cr Capsule 25 contains nitroglycerin also known as glyceryl trinitrate (2.5 mg), which acts on your body through various mechanisms:

• Nitric oxide donor: When metabolised, this medicine releases nitric oxide (NO), which plays a key role in relaxing and widening blood vessels.
• Guanylate cyclase activator: Nitroglycerin activates an enzyme called guanylate cyclase. Activation of this enzyme leads to increased levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), which causes relaxation of vascular smooth muscle.
• Vein and artery dilator: The dilation of veins (venodilation) reduces cardiac preload while the dilation of arteries (arteriodilation) decreases afterload. These actions improve blood flow in the coronary arteries and peripheral circulation.

• Keep the container well closed, in a cool dry place protected from a light.
• Avoid any exposure to light or moisture, as it can affect the medicine's effectiveness.
• Keep this medicine out of reach and sight of children to ensure safety.
• Always check the expiry date before taking the capsule. Expired medication may not be effective in managing your condition.

• Aim for a low-sodium diet. Excessive sodium can increase blood pressure and worsen coronary artery disease, which is managed by Nitroday 2.5 Cr Capsule 25.
• Regular physical activity is helpful. Though it's important to avoid straining yourself or doing vigorous exercise without your doctor's approval, regular light exercises like walking or yoga can help improve circulation and heart health.
