Benefits of Ismo Tablet ER
Treatment of Angina (heart-related chest pain)
Angina is chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscle, usually due to narrowed coronary arteries. Ismo Retard Tablet ER helps by relaxing and widening blood vessels, which improves blood flow and oxygen supply to the heart. This helps relieve chest discomfort and reduces the risk of angina attacks.

How Ismo Tablet ER works
Ismo Retard Tablet ER is a nitrate. It dilates peripheral arteries and veins. Dilation of the veins promotes peripheral pooling of blood and decreases venous return to the heart, thereby reducing the workload of the heart. As a result, the heart muscle does not need as much blood and oxygen supply.
