Isosorbide Mononitrate Extended-Release Tablets, USP

Isosorbide mononitrate extended-release tablets, USP, belong to a class of medications called nitrates. They are primarily used in the prevention and treatment of chest pain (angina) caused by coronary artery disease.

Isosorbide mononitrate works by dilating blood vessels, particularly the veins, reducing the workload on the heart and improving blood flow to the heart muscle. This helps to prevent angina attacks or reduce their frequency and severity.
