Imdur is not indicated in the management of acute attacks of angina pectoris. 4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION Dosage Imdur 60 mg once daily, to be taken in the morning. The dose may be increased to 120 mg daily, the whole dose to be given together in the morning. This will produce effective nitrate blood levels during the day with low blood levels at night to prevent the development of tolerance.

Note that Imdur is not indicated for the relief of acute attacks, in the event of an acute attack, sublingual or buccal glyceryl trinitrate tablets should be used Children The safety and efficacy of Imdur in children has not been established.
