About Nitrocin 50 mg Injection

Nitrocin 50 mg Injection is primarily used for treating angina pectoris and myocardial infarction. Nitrocin 50 mg Injection can also be used to control intraoperative blood pressure. Angina occurs when the heart does not receive sufficient oxygen.

Nitrocin 50 mg Injection contains Glyceryl Trinitrate, which relaxes blood vessels (veins and arteries).

Nitrocin 50 mg Injection may cause side effects like headache, hypotension, tachycardia (fast heart rate), dyspnea (shortness of breath), dizziness, light-headedness, and blurred vision. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Inform your doctor if you are allergic or hypersensitive to any component present in Nitrocin 50 mg Injection. If you are pregnant, suspect you are pregnant, plan to have a baby, or if you are breastfeeding, inform your doctor before receiving this medicine. 

Uses of Nitrocin 50 mg Injection

  • Angina pectoris: It helps relieve chest pain by relaxing and widening the blood vessels, improving blood flow to the heart.

How Nitrocin 50 mg Injection Works

Nitrocin 50 mg Injection is administered by a health care professional in a hospital setting. Hence, the chances of overdose are less.
