Buy Imdur 60mg (Isosorbide Mononitrate) Online
Imdur 60 mg contains the active ingredient Isosorbide mononitrate, which belongs to a family of drugs called nitrates. It is a vasodilator medicine that affects both arteries and veins. Isosorbide mononitrate dilates (widens) blood vessels, paving a clear passage for the blood flow and helping the heart pump blood easier. It is prescribed mainly to prevent angina attacks (chest pain). However, it will not treat an angina attack that has already begun.
— Imdur is contraindicated in patients who are allergic to it or any of its ingredients. Do not use it in patients taking certain medications for erectile dysfunction, such as sildenafil, tadalafil, and vardenafil. Concomitant use can cause a severe drop in blood pressure, syncope, or myocardial infarction. Do not use Isosorbide mononitrate in patients taking the soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator riociguat. Concomitant use can cause severe drops in blood pressure.
— The benefits of Imdur 60 mg in patients with acute myocardial infarction or congestive heart failure have not been established.
— Imdur 60 mg can impact your thinking and reflexes. Be extra careful if you drive or do other activities that require a high degree of mental awareness. This medicine can make you dizzy. Avoid getting up suddenly from a sitting or lying position. Also, avoid alcohol.
— The safety and effectiveness of Isosorbide mononitrate in pediatric patients have not been established.
— It is not known whether isosorbide mononitrate is excreted in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in breast milk, caution should be exercised when Imdur is administered to a nursing woman. In general. Be cautious while ding dose selection for an elderly patient, usually starting at the low dose, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased renal, hepatic, or cardiac function and concomitant disease or other drug therapy.
— Concomitant use of Imdur with phosphodiesterase inhibitors in any form is contraindicated.
— Concomitant use of Isosorbide mononitrate with riociguate is contraindicated.
— The vasodilating effects of Imdur may be additive with those of other vasodilators. In addition, alcohol has been found to exhibit additive effects.
Headache is the most frequent side effect; however, the side effects may decrease in incidence after the first few days of therapy. Some side effects of Isosorbide Mononitrate are headache, dizziness, lightheadedness, nausea, and flushing. If any of these conditions persist or deteriorate, or you experience serious side effects, stop using this medicine and contact your doctor immediately.
The side effects mentioned above are not the only ones you may experience or witness due to Isosorbide Mononitrate. If you get any serious side effects due to this medication, contact your doctor right away.
Take Imdur 60 mg strictly according to your doctor’s direction or the instructions on the medication label. Do not alter the dosage unless your doctor advises you to do so. Also, do not take this medication after the prescribed period is over. All medications come with a patient leaflet. Refer to the instructions in them for detailed information on that medication. Always store this medicine in a cool and dry place.
Drink plenty of fluids while taking Isosorbide Mononitrate to avoid dehydration. Watch out for causes of low blood pressure such as diarrhoea, vomiting, heavy sweating, dialysis, a low salt diet, or taking diuretics. Dose adjustment is unnecessary for elderly patients or patients with altered renal functions.
What is Imdur 60mg used for?
Imdur 60mg contains Isosorbide Mononitrate 60mg in sustained-release form. It is the standard maintenance dose of this long-acting nitrate, used for prophylaxis (prevention) of angina pectoris in patients with stable coronary artery disease. It is one of the most commonly prescribed oral antianginal medications globally, reducing the frequency and severity of chest pain epiSodiumes with once-daily dosing.
How does Imdur 60mg prevent angina?
Imdur 60mg releases Isosorbide Mononitrate slowly throughout the day, maintaining nitric oxide-mediated vaSodiumilation in coronary and peripheral vessels. This reduces venous return to the heart (preload) and peripheral resistance (afterload), decreasing myocardial oxygen demand below the ischaemic threshold. Regular daily dosing prevents the conditions that precipitate angina during physical exertion or emotional stress.
What is the correct dosage for Imdur 60mg?
Take one Imdur 60mg tablet once daily in the morning, swallowed whole with water. Do not crush, chew, or split. If tolerating 30mg without significant side effects, the dose can be increased to 60mg once daily. The maximum approved once-daily dose is 120mg. Take at the same time each morning for consistent blood levels. Never take a double dose if a morning dose is missed.
Can Imdur 60mg be taken with or without food?
Yes. Imdur 60mg can be taken with or without food. Food does not significantly affect the extended-release absorption profile of Isosorbide Mononitrate. Some patients prefer taking it with breakfast to establish a routine and minimise any gastrointestinal discomfort. Avoid high-fat meals immediately before if experiencing nausea, though this is not a common issue.
Is Imdur 60mg effective for all types of angina?
Imdur 60mg is most effective for stable (effort-induced) angina. It is also used for vasospastic (Prinzmetal) angina, where coronary artery spasm is the mechanism. For unstable angina (rest pain), intravenous nitrates are typically used in hospital; Imdur 60mg is then continued as oral maintenance. It is less effective for angina in patients with severely reduced LV function — discuss alternatives with your cardiologist.
Can Imdur 60mg be combined with calcium channel blockers?
Yes. Imdur 60mg is frequently combined with calcium channel blockers (CCBs) such as amlodipine for synergistic antianginal effect. CCBs reduce coronary spasm and cardiac oxygen demand through a different mechanism. The combination is endorsed by cardiology guidelines when a single antianginal agent is insufficient. Monitor for additive hypotension when combining. Avoid combining with non-dihydropyridine CCBs (verapamil) in combination with a beta blocker.
Is Imdur 60mg a branded or generic medication?
Imdur is a branded sustained-release Isosorbide Mononitrate medication. The 60mg SR formulation is available under various generic names at lower cost. AllDayChemist stocks branded Imdur 60mg as well as equivalent generic SR ISMN products, providing patients with the choice of branded or generic formulations at competitive prices with the same antianginal efficacy.
Is generic SR Isosorbide Mononitrate 60mg as effective as Imdur?
Yes. Generic sustained-release Isosorbide Mononitrate 60mg tablets that are bioequivalent to Imdur deliver the same systemic ISMN exposure. The antianginal mechanism — nitric oxide-mediated vaSodiumilation — is identical regardless of the manufacturer. Major cardiology guidelines do not differentiate between branded and generic ISMN in their recommendations, as efficacy is equivalent.

What side effects does Imdur 60mg commonly cause?
Headache is the primary side effect of Imdur 60mg — typically occurring in the first one to two weeks and diminishing with continued use. Other common effects include dizziness, flushing, and orthostatic hypotension. The 60mg dose tends to cause more pronounced headaches than 30mg. Starting at 30mg and titrating to 60mg can reduce initial side effects. Paracetamol can help manage headache symptoms during the adjustment period.
What are the important safety precautions for Imdur 60mg?
Never combine with PDE-5 inhibitors (Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, Stendra) — the interaction causes dangerous hypotension and is absolutely contraindicated. Do not crush or break the sustained-release tablet. Avoid stopping Imdur 60mg abruptly — taper under medical guidance. Keep sublingual GTN spray available for breakthrough angina. Inform all prescribers about Imdur 60mg before starting any new medications. Avoid alcohol. Rise slowly from sitting positions.
