The drug Erinit is indicated for use in such cases, when the patient needs to improve the blood supply of certain tissues and organs. This is a narrowly directed medicine, and accordingly, when taken in strictness with all the prescriptions, the drug will act more than efficiently.
The principle of the action of Erinit tablets
The main active substance in Erinite is pentaerythrityl tetranitrate. Supplement it as part of the drug such medicines:
- sugar;
- talc;
- potato starch;
- dextrose;
- stearic acid.
Erynit refers to a group of peripheral venous vasodilators that can exert anti-anginal action. The medication works quite simply: it stimulates the formation of nitrogen oxides on the walls of the vessels. The latter, as shown by practice, can be considered excellent relaxants. It is due to nitrogen oxides that pre- and post-loading on the heart decreases, and the patient's condition is normalized.
In addition, the drug Erinit can produce such effects:
- significantly reduces the need for oxygen;
- reduces the pressure of the small circle of blood circulation;
- restores blood flow in small endocardial vessels;
- supplies enough blood to the coronary arteries;
- increases the endurance of the organism in patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases.
According to the principle of action, Erynitol can be compared with Nitroglycerin . The main difference is that the drug is somewhat slower (positive changes occur at least after half an hour). But the effect of taking Erynitus persists longer - the drug can operate up to ten hours, which is twice as much as that of Nitroglycerin.
Indications for the use of Erinitis
The main purpose of the drug is the treatment of chronic coronary insufficiency. The disease is due to a mismatch between the needs of the heart in oxygen and the real amount of gas that gets to the body through the arteries.
In addition, Erynitus is used for such diagnoses:
- angina pectoris;
- cardiac ischemia;
- chronic heart failure .
However, for the treatment of chronic cardiovascular failure, Erynit is not used as an independent treatment. A much more effective drug is included in complex therapy.
You can apply Erinit for both treatment and prevention. So, for example, regular intake of the drug effectively prevents attacks of angina pectoris.
Features of the application of Erynit tablets
Erinitis tablets are taken inside. It is advisable to drink the drug before eating. Dosage is selected individually, but in most cases it coincides with standard recommendations: 1-2 tablets three times - four times a day. In particularly difficult cases, the dose may increase to 4 tablets. And some patients should drink 8 tablets twice a day. Those people who suffer from night attacks of angina pectoris, it is recommended to drink the drug immediately before bed.
The average duration of treatment is 2-4 weeks. On the repeated courses you need to negotiate with an expert.
