Isosorbid Dinitrate is a nitrat-group drugs. Nitrat is used as a vasodilator. Nitrates, including isosorbide dinitrate, correct the imbalance between the flow of blood and oxygen to the heart and the work that the heart must do by dilating (expanding) the arteries and veins in the body.

Isosorbide relaxes blood vessels allowing more blood to flow through. This reduces the workload on the heart and improves blood flow to the heart. Sublingual isosorbide tablets act quickly to relieve or prevent chest pain .

Isosorbide dinitrate tablets can be taken with or without food.

Dosing :

Tablets: 5-40 mg 2 or 3 times daily
Tablets: (sublingual): 2.5-10 mg
Tablets: (extended-release) and capsules (sustained-release): 40-80 mg once or twice daily.

Watch out for Isosorbid side effect! It can make you have severe blood pressure reduction. You also must tell your doctor if you are using vasodilators for erection problems.

You must remember that RA is an autoimmune disease. You only can manage the symptoms, not the disease.

1. NSAIDs (Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) can relieve pain and reduce inflammation. You can use ibuprofen, ketoprofen, naproxen, and else.

Remember about the side effects. Most NSAIDs have gastro-intestinal side effects. Sometimes they also affect heart and liver.

2. Steroids. Steroid, such as prednisone, can reduce inflammation and pan, and slow joint damage. Beware for long-term use of steroids.

3. Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs. It is used to limit the amount of joint damage that occur in RA.

4. Immunosuppresant. It will tame your immune system. Beware that this drugs will lower your immune system, so that you will easily get infection.

5. TNF-alpha inhibitors. It will act as an inflammatory agents in RA.

What is it?

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease. It will causes chronic inflammation of the joints.

RA will cause inflammation of the tissue around joints. It will effect other organs too. Because RA is an autoimmune disease, then it is hard to prevent RA.

RA is considered as a systemic illness because it can affect multiple organs in the body at the same time.

RA can last for years without any symptoms. One thing you must know, RA is a progressive disease that has the potential to cause joint destruction.
