Nicostar OD 10 mg Tablet_LUPIN

Nicostar OD 10 mg Tablet is used for the prevention and treatment of angina, a form of heart-related chest pain. It is typically recommended when other heart medications are unsuitable or ineffective. This medication reduces the risk of angina attacks by widening blood vessels and enhancing blood flow to the heart.

You can take Nicostar OD 10 mg Tablet with or without food, swallowing it whole with water. It’s important to maintain a regular dosing schedule, as determined by your healthcare provider. Dosage may be adjusted periodically based on its effectiveness, so do not discontinue use without consulting your doctor, as abrupt cessation could lead to a resurgence of chest pain. Additionally, adopting a heart-healthy lifestyle by quitting smoking, moderating alcohol intake, maintaining a balanced diet, engaging in regular exercise, and managing stress can improve your heart health.

Common side effects of this medication include headaches, particularly during the initial days of treatment, which often subside within a week. Staying well-hydrated and avoiding alcohol may help alleviate this. Other possible side effects encompass dizziness, weakness, nausea, and flushing (a warm sensation in the face, ears, neck, and trunk). If these side effects persist or trouble you, consult your doctor.
