Nitrostat for Angina Reviews

"My cardiologist recommended this drug to relieve shortness of breath at night due to atrial fibrillation. The sublingual 0.4 mg tablet gives a slight burning sensation under the tongue, which is not uncomfortable. A slight headache was felt on the forehead but was of short duration. The immediate dilation of the blood vessels achieves relief within one minute. Very positive results."


"There should be a warning on this, not to take while driving. Can make you extremely dizzy, spaced out, eye pain, etc."
