Objective To compare the clinical treatment effect and side reaction of dissolving compound salivia miltiorrhiza in mouth and dissolving nitroglycerin in mouth to treat angina pectoris.
Many of the drugs used in angina pectoris are the substrate of cytochrome P450, drug interactions are easily to occur when antianginal drugs co-administrated with other drugs and foods.
In the majority of cases, the underlying cause of stable angina is atherosclerosis of one or more the coronary arteries—arteries supplying blood to the heart muscles.
Even after it became an accepted treatment for angina, the technical term for chest pain, what exactly nitroglycerine does to the circulatory system remained a mystery for a long time.
Stable angina or chronic angina is the most common type of angina and it usually happens when the patient has greater than or equal to 70% stenosis, meaning 70% of the artery is blocked by plaque buildup.
