Nitrolingual Pumpspray (GTN) 200 Dose is for sublingual use in the treatment of angina.
Nitrolingual Pumpspray may also be used to prevent angina if used 5-10 minutes before taking part in an activity which may provoke an attack of angina. Angina is a pain or uncomfortable feeling in the chest, often spreading to the arms or the neck and sometimes to the shoulders and back. This may be caused by too little blood and oxygen getting to the heart. The pain of angina is usually brought on by exercise or stress.
Nitrolingual Pumpspray belongs to a group of medicines called nitrates. It works by widening blood vessels, letting more blood and oxygen reach the heart.
Nitrolingual Pumpspray 0.4mg contains the active ingredient glyceryl trinitrate, used to treat and prevent symptoms of angina. It also contains peppermint oil, ethanol, medium chain triglycerides (as fractionated coconut oil), medium chain mono-and diglycerides.
