Indications:
Isomon 10 mg is indicated for the prevention of angina pectoris due to coronary artery disease. It helps to reduce the frequency and severity of angina attacks.

Pharmacology:
Isosorbide mononitrate, the active ingredient, is a nitrate that works by relaxing and widening blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily to the heart and reducing its workload.

Dosage:
The typical dosage is 10 mg taken orally once or twice daily, as prescribed by a healthcare provider. The exact dosage and frequency depend on individual patient needs and response to treatment.

Administration:
Take Isomon 10 mg tablets by mouth, with or without food, as directed by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole; do not crush or chew.

Interaction:
Isomon 10 mg may interact with other medications, especially those used for erectile dysfunction (e.g., sildenafil), leading to a dangerous drop in blood pressure. Inform your doctor about all medications you are taking.

Contraindications:
Contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to isosorbide mononitrate or other nitrates, severe anemia, and those who have recently had a heart attack.

Side Effects:
Common side effects include headache, dizziness, and flushing. Serious side effects may include low blood pressure, rapid heart rate, and fainting. Seek medical attention if you experience any severe reactions.

Pregnancy & Lactation:
Use during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. It is not known whether isosorbide mononitrate passes into breast milk; consult your doctor before breastfeeding.

Precautions & Warnings:
Use with caution in patients with low blood pressure, dehydration, or those taking other medications that affect blood pressure. Regular monitoring by a healthcare provider is recommended.
