Product Description 9. Manufacturer and Product Registration Holder 10. Date of Revision WHAT NITRODERM TTS IS USED FOR Nitroderm TTS belongs to a group of medicines called nitrates which widen the blood vessels. This medicine is used to prevent or reduce the frequency of angina attacks (chest pain or discomfort). HOW NITRODERM TTS WORKS Nitroderm TTS works by widening the blood vessels, which makes it easier for the heart to do its work. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor. If an angina attack has already started, you should use a fast- acting nitrate (sublingual tablets or spray) instead of Nitroderm TTS patches. BEFORE YOU USE NITRODERM TTS Follow all the doctor’s instructions carefully. They may differ from the general information contained in this leaflet. _When you must not use it _ If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to nitroglycerin, to any excipient of Nitroderm TTS, or to nitrates or nitrites. If you suffer from a breakdown of the blood circulation with very low blood pressure, such as in shock. If you have increased intracranial pressure (an increase of pressure in the brain). If you suffer from a disease of the valves of the heart or an inflammatory disease of the heart. If you are currently taking a medicine to treat erectile dysfunction from the group of so-called phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (e.g. sildenafil). If any of these apply to you, tell your doctor without taking Nitroderm TTS. _ _ _PREGNANCY AND BREAST-FEEDING _ There is little experience with the use of Nitroderm TTS in pregnant women. You should tell your doctor if you are pregnant, or if you plan to become pregnant. Your Aqra d-dokument sħiħ
