Imdur is a medication that contains isosorbide mononitrate and is used to prevent and treat angina (chest pain) caused by heart disease. It works by relaxing and widening blood vessels, which improves blood flow and reduces the workload on the heart.

Uses:

Treatment and prevention of angina pectoris due to coronary artery disease.
Management of congestive heart failure

Dosage:

The recommended starting dose for Imdur is usually 30 to 60 mg once daily, taken in the morning. The maximum recommended daily dose is 240 mg, taken as a single dose or divided into two doses. The exact dosage and duration of treatment will depend on the individual's condition and response to treatment and should be determined by a healthcare provider.

Side Effects:

Common side effects of Imdur include headache, dizziness, lightheadedness, nausea, flushing, and dry mouth. These side effects usually subside with continued use. Serious side effects may include an allergic reaction, severe headache, low blood pressure, and fainting. Seek medical attention immediately if any of these occur.

Precautions:

Inform your healthcare provider if you have a history of low blood pressure, kidney or liver disease, or a recent heart attack.
Avoid drinking alcohol while taking Imdur, as this can increase the risk of side effects.
Do not use Imdur if you are taking erectile dysfunction medications such as sildenafil (Viagra), tadalafil (Cialis), or vardenafil (Levitra), as this can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.
Use caution when driving or operating machinery, as Imdur may cause dizziness or lightheadedness.

It is important to always follow the instructions of your healthcare provider and read the medication label carefully before using Imdur.
