Myonit Injection is used to treat and prevent heart-related chest pain (angina) and hypertension (high blood pressure) during surgery. Myonit Injection is given as an injection under the supervision of a doctor with careful blood pressure monitoring. This is given as a continuous infusion into a vein and should not be stopped abruptly. It should not be mixed with any other medication of any kind. The most common side effect of Myonit Injection is a headache which may be severe. This can sometimes be helped by drinking plenty of fluids and avoiding alcohol. You may also experience lightheadedness which could increase your risk of having a fall. There are other rarer side effects some of them serious. Ask your doctor and read the leaflet which comes with the medicine to make sure you are keeping safe.
Myonit Injection is a nitrate. It works by improving blood supply to the heart and relaxing the blood vessels, which decreases the oxygen demand of the heart and reduces its workload thereby preventing/treating attacks of angina (chest pain). Relaxation of blood vessels lowers blood pressure.
