Description:
Monotrate 20 Tablet is a prescription medicine used to prevent chest pain (angina) caused by heart-related conditions. It works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily to the heart, which helps reduce its workload. While this medicine is effective for preventing angina, it is not meant to relieve chest pain once it has started. Monotrate 20 can be taken with or without food, and it’s important to follow your doctor’s prescribed dosage and timing precisely, as skipping doses or stopping abruptly may increase the risk of chest pain returning. To enhance the effectiveness of the treatment, adopting healthy lifestyle habits such as regular exercise, a heart-friendly diet, and avoiding smoking is recommended.
Over time, your body may develop a tolerance to this medication, making it important to stick to the schedule provided by your doctor. Common side effects may include headache, flushing, abdominal discomfort, upper respiratory infections, allergic reactions, and diarrhea. These are usually mild, but if they persist or become bothersome, consult your doctor.
Inform your healthcare provider about any existing medical conditions, especially low blood pressure, kidney issues, glaucoma, or heart failure, and disclose all other medications you’re taking. Avoid using this medicine with erectile dysfunction treatments due to potential serious interactions. If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to conceive, speak with your doctor before starting this medication. Routine monitoring of blood pressure and heart rate may be recommended during treatment.
