Olicard

Olicard is a drug belonging to the pharmacological group of “Antianginal drugs”. The active component of the drug, isosorbide mononitrate, is widely used to prevent angina attacks as an adjuvant in the treatment of chronic heart failure. Olycard treatment is aimed at improving blood circulation in areas of the heart muscle that have been subject to ischemia by normalizing blood pressure, reducing cardiac output and reducing the heart's need for oxygen. The drug should be taken after meals with water or other drinks. The course of treatment is determined by the attending physician individually depending on the severity of the patient’s disease.

In addition, the drug may have a side effect in the form of a “nitrate” headache, as well as a decrease in concentration and reaction speed while taking Olicard. To avoid these reactions, it is recommended to consult a specialist before starting therapy.

Contraindications: hypersensitivity to the components of the drug, cardiovascular diseases such as primary infarction and cardiogenic shock. If contraindications to the use of Olicard arise, measures should be taken to prevent possible consequences and replace the drug with a drug of similar effect.

The pharmacological effect of Olycard is due to its ability to dilate blood vessels and increase blood supply to areas of the heart suffering from ischemia. As a result, heart pressure decreases, which reduces the load on the heart and prevents attacks of pain. The oxygen demand of the heart muscle is reduced, thereby ensuring its stable functioning and maintaining a normal heart rhythm.

One of the distinctive features of Olicard is its ability to suppress myocardial hypoxia. In the treatment of chronic coronary heart disease and other diseases that cause oxygen deficiency of the heart muscle, taking the drug helps restore its functioning and maintain heart health. Olycard plays an important role in maintaining normal blood circulation by improving cardiac contractile function and reducing heart rate.
