disturbances, but these effects are usually mild and transient
Q: Therapeutic action of organic nitrates (nitroglycerin)

direct relaxant effect on vascular smooth muscles, and the dilation of coronary vessels improves
oxygen supply to the myocardium. The dilation of peripheral veins, and in higher doses
peripheral arteries, reduces preload and afterload, and thereby lowers myocardial oxygen
consumption.
promote vasodilation
Q: Contraindications for ranolazine
Answer:

torsades de pointes. These things include: grapefruit juice, HIV protease inhibitors, macrolide

levels of ranolazine. Drugs that prolong the QT interval can increase the risk of torsades de

flareup a year. Your response is:
