Nicorandil Tablets 5mg | C

Description

MAYORANDIL 5 is a prescription medication containing Nicorandil 5 mg, a potassium channel opener with nitrate-like properties used primarily for the treatment and prevention of angina pectoris — a condition caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscles. Manufactured with stringent quality standards, MAYORANDIL 5 effectively helps improve oxygen supply to the heart, reduces the frequency of chest pain episodes, and enhances overall cardiac performance. Nicorandil acts by relaxing and widening blood vessels, allowing easier blood flow and reducing the workload on the heart. This dual mechanism—combining nitrate activity with potassium channel activation—makes MAYORANDIL 5 a valuable option for patients suffering from chronic stable angina or those intolerant to traditional nitrate therapy. Uses MAYORANDIL 5 is primarily indicated for: Treatment and prevention of angina pectoris (chest pain due to coronary artery disease). Improving oxygen delivery to the heart muscles. Reducing the frequency and severity of angina attacks. Adjunct therapy for patients already on other anti-anginal medications such as beta-blockers or calcium channel blockers. In some cases, MAYORANDIL 5 may also be recommended as part of a long-term management plan for patients with coronary heart disease to help improve exercise tolerance and overall heart function. Benefits MAYORANDIL 5 offers several clinically proven benefits that make it a trusted choice among cardiologists and healthcare providers: Effective Angina Relief: Nicorandil helps reduce chest pain by improving blood flow to the heart and ensuring an adequate oxygen supply to cardiac tissues. Dual Mechanism of Action: It works as a vasodilator and potassium channel opener, relaxing both arteries and veins to decrease cardiac workload and oxygen demand. Improved Exercise Tolerance: Regular use of MAYORANDIL 5 allows patients with chronic angina to engage in physical activities with fewer symptoms. Prevents Future Angina Episodes: The medicine reduces the frequency and intensity of angina attacks, providing long-term symptom control. Supports Overall Heart Health: By maintaining better blood flow and reducing strain on the heart, it helps prevent further cardiac complications in high-risk patients. Dosage The dosage of MAYORANDIL 5 should always be determined by a healthcare professional based on individual health status and response to therapy. General dosage guidelines: The usual starting dose is 5 mg twice daily (morning and evening). Depending on the patient’s condition, the dose may be gradually increased under medical supervision. Tablets should be swallowed whole with water, preferably after meals. Do not crush or chew the tablets. Consistent dosing is essential to maintain therapeutic benefit. Important Note: Do not stop taking MAYORANDIL 5 suddenly without consulting your doctor, as it may worsen angina symptoms. Side Effects Like all medications, MAYORANDIL 5 may cause certain side effects, although not everyone experiences them. Most side effects are mild and transient. Common Side Effects: Headache (due to vasodilation) Dizziness or lightheadedness Flushing (warm sensation in the skin) Nausea or stomach discomfort Fatigue or weakness Rare but Serious Side Effects: Mouth or anal ulcers (nicorandil-induced ulceration) Hypotension (low blood pressure) Irregular heartbeat or palpitations Allergic reactions (rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing) If you experience severe side effects, contact your healthcare provider immediately. Conclusion MAYORANDIL 5 (Nicorandil Tablets 5 mg) is a well-established, effective, and safe medication for managing chronic stable angina. Its unique mechanism—combining nitrate-like vasodilation and potassium channel opening—makes it ideal for improving oxygen supply to the heart, relieving chest pain, and preventing future angina attacks. Regular use of MAYORANDIL 5, under medical supervision and along with lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, quitting smoking, and regular exercise, can significantly improve quality of life for patients with heart disease.
