How Fenoxaprop ethyl works
Fenoxaprop ethyl is a proprietary combination of nitrate and L-arginine that provides the beneficial cardiovascular effects of nitrates. Combining L-arginine with organic nitrates prevents the endothelial cell's depletion of L-arginine and the associated problem of nitrate tolerance. By eliminating nitrate tolerance, Fenoxaprop ethyl allows patients to receive the continuous, 24-hour benefit of a potent nitrate product, thus sustaining the desired vasodilation effect.
