Description
Nicowin 5 Tablet is a medicine used to treat and prevent chest pain related to the heart, also called angina. It contains nicorandil as its active ingredient, which helps relax and widen the blood vessels. This improves blood flow to the heart, reducing the frequency and severity of chest pain attacks and helping you feel more comfortable during daily activities.
Nicorandil in Nicowin 5 Tablet works by both widening arteries and reducing the heart’s workload, which lowers the oxygen demand of the heart muscles. This dual action helps prevent angina attacks and improves overall heart health. Taking the medicine regularly as prescribed is essential to maintain its protective effects.
You should take Nicowin 5 Tablet exactly as directed by your doctor. The dose and duration will depend on your heart condition and response to treatment. Do not change the dose or stop taking the medicine without consulting your doctor, as this may increase the risk of chest pain or heart complications.
Before starting Nicowin 5 Tablet, inform your doctor about your complete medical history, including heart disease, low blood pressure, kidney or liver problems, and any other chronic conditions. Also, let your doctor know if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, as this helps ensure safe and effective treatment.
Common side effects may include headaches, nausea, vomiting, or redness of the skin, which are usually temporary. If side effects persist or your condition worsens, contact your doctor immediately. Along with taking this medicine, following a heart-healthy lifestyle, maintaining a balanced diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking or alcohol can enhance the effectiveness of Nicowin 5 Tablet and support long-term heart health.
