Description
Indications
Nitroglycerin transdermal patches are employed to avert occurrences of angina (chest pain) in individuals afflicted with coronary artery disease, characterized by the narrowing of blood vessels supplying the heart. These patches are specifically designed for the prevention of angina attacks and should not be utilized to address an ongoing episode.
Nitroglycerin belongs to a category of medications known as vasodilators, functioning by easing the tension in blood vessels. This relaxation reduces the workload on the heart, subsequently lowering its demand for oxygen.
Uses and Dosage
Remove the transdermal patch from its pouch and follow the instructions to peel off the protective clear liner. Typically, the patch is worn on the upper arm or chest, but it can be applied anywhere on the body below the neck and above the knees or elbows. Choose a clean, dry, and hairless area, where hair may be clipped but not shaved. Avoid areas with cuts or irritation. Post-bathing or showering, ensure your skin is completely dry before patch application, although you can engage in bathing, showering, and swimming while wearing the patch. Press the patch firmly onto the selected area using the palm of your hand, remembering to wash your hands afterward.
Follow your doctor’s instructions for usage, usually wearing one patch a day for 12 to 14 hours. The prescribed dosage is determined by your medical condition and response to treatment.
For skin irritation reduction, place each new patch on a different skin area. After removing the old patch, fold it in half with the sticky sides together and dispose of it out of reach of children and pets.
To maximize the benefits, use the medication regularly, administering it at the same time each day. Do not abruptly discontinue usage without consulting your doctor, as certain conditions may worsen with sudden cessation. Gradual dose reduction may be necessary.
While unlikely, prolonged use of this medication may result in decreased efficacy, requiring adjustments in dosing. Inform your doctor if you observe reduced effectiveness, such as worsening chest pain or increased frequency of occurrences.

redness or irritation of the skin that was covered by the patch

Inform your healthcare provider immediately if you experience any serious side effects:
