Isosorbide-5-mononitrate is an active metabolite of isosorbide dinitrate. It is a vasodilator with effects on both arteries and vein and also coronary vessels. It causes reduction of preload and afterload and redistributes coronary flow to ischemic regions.

Isosorbide mononitrate relaxes vascular smooth muscles by stimulating cyclic-GMP. It decreases left ventricular pressure (preload) and arterial resistance (afterload).

Isosorbide mononitrate is an anti-anginal agent and vasodilator that relaxes vascular smooth muscle to prevent and manage angina pectoris. The pharmacological action is mediated by the active metabolite, nitric oxide, which is released when isosorbide mononitrate is metabolized. Nitric oxide works on both arteries and veins, but predominantly veins: by relaxing veins and reducing the central venous pressure, nitric oxide causes venous pooling and a decrease in the venous return to the heart, thus decreasing cardiac preload. In healthy subjects, the stroke volume is decreased and venous pooling can occur in the standing posture, leading to postural hypotension and dizziness.

At therapeutic doses of isosorbide mononitrate, nitric oxide has a bigger effect on larger muscular arteries over small resistance arteries. Arterial relaxation leads to reduced systemic vascular resistance and systolic blood (aortic) pressure, decreasing to decreased cardiac afterload. The direct dilator effect on coronary arteries opposes the coronary artery spasm in variant angina or angina pectoris. At larger doses, nitric oxide causes the resistance arteries and arterioles to dilate, reducing arterial pressure via coronary vasodilatation. This leads to increased coronary blood flow. Reduced cardiac preload and afterload caused by nitric oxide causes a reduction in myocardial oxygen consumption; decreased myocardial oxygen demand, along with increased coronary blood flow, leads to an increased in the oxygen content of coronary sinus blood and the relief from ischemia.

The end effect of isosorbide mononitrate include decreased cardiac oxygen consumption, redistribution coronary flow toward ischemic areas via collaterals, and the relief of coronary spasms. Nitric oxide can also increase the rate of relaxation of cardiac muscles, which is an effect outside of vascular smooth muscles. Organic nitrates can also relax other types of smooth muscles, including esophageal and biliary smooth muscle. The anti-anginal activity of isosorbide mononitrate was observed about 1 hour after dosing, and the peak effect was achieved from 1-4 hours after dosing. The duration of anti-anginal action of at least 12 hours was observed with an asymmetrical dosing regimen.

Uses

Isosorbide mononitrate tablets are used for-

  • The prevention of angina pectoris due to coronary artery disease. The onset of action of oral isosorbide mononitrate is not sufficiently rapid for this product to be useful in aborting an acute anginal episode.
  • Long-term treatment of blood-flow disorders of the coronary vessels (coronary heart disease)
  • Long-term treatment and prophylaxis of angina pectoris (chest pain due to coronary blood-flow disorders of the coronary vessels).
  • Treatment of severe myocardial insufficiency (chronic heart failure)

Изосорбида мононитрат-Тева is also used to associated treatment for these conditions: Angina Pectoris

How Изосорбида мононитрат-Тева works

Isosorbide mononitrate acts as a prodrug for nitric oxide (NO), which is a potent vasodilator gas that is released when the drug is metabolized. NO activates soluble guanylyl cyclase in vascular endothelial cells, which increases the intracellular concentrations of cyclic GMP (cGMP). cGMP activates cGMP-dependent protein kinases, such as protein kinase G and I, which activates the downstream intracellular cascades. The downstream cascade results in reduced intracellular concentrations of calcium, caused by processes including inhibition of IP3-mediated pathway, phosphorylation of big calcium-activated potassium channel leading to cell hyperpolarization and reduced calcium influx, and increased calcium efflux via the Ca2+-ATPase-pump. Reduced intracellular calcium concentrations lead to the dephosphorylation of myosin light chains and the relaxation of smooth muscle cells.

Dosage

Изосорбида мононитрат-Тева dosage

The recommendedregimenof Изосорбида мононитрат-Тева tablets is 20 mg (one tablet) twice daily, with the two doses given 7 hours apart. For most patients, this can be accomplished by taking the first dose on awakening and the second dose 7 hours later. Dosage adjustments are not necessary for elderly patients or patients with alteredrenalorhepaticfunction.

Multiple studies oforganicnitrates have shown that maintenance of continuous 24-hourplasmalevels results inrefractorytolerance. The dosing regimen for Изосорбида мононитрат-Тева tablets provides a daily nitrate-free interval to avoid the development of this tolerance. Well-controlled studies have shown that tolerance to Изосорбида мононитрат-Тева tablets is avoided when using the twice-daily regimen in which the two doses are given 7 hours apart. This regimen has been shown to have antianginal efficacy beginning 1 hour after the first dose and lasting at least 5 hours after the second dose. The duration (if any) of antianginal activity beyond 12 hours has not been studied; large controlled studies with other nitrates suggest that no dosing regimen should be expected to provide more than about 12 hours of continuous antianginal efficacy per day.

Inclinical trials, Изосорбида мононитрат-Тева tablets have been administered in a variety of regimens. Single doses less than 20 mg have not been adequately studied, while single doses greater than 20 mg have demonstrated no greater efficacy than doses of 20 mg.

Side Effects

Hypotension, tachycardia, flushing, headache, dizziness, palpitation, syncope, confusion. Nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain. Restlessness, weakness and vertigo. Dry mouth, chest pain, back pain, oedema, fatigue, abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhoea, dyspepsia and flatulence.

Toxicity

The oral LD50 is 2010 mg/kg in rats and 1771 mg/kg in mice.

The symptoms of overdose from isosorbide mononitrate is associated with vasodilatation, venous pooling, reduced cardiac output, and hypotension. These symptoms can be accompanied by several manifestations, including increased intracranial pressure (possibly along with persistent throbbing headache, confusion, and moderate fever), vertigo, palpitations, visual disturbances, nausea and vomiting (possibly along with colic and bloody diarrhea), syncope (especially in the upright posture), air hunger and dyspnea (later followed by reduced ventilatory effort), diaphoresis (with flushed or cold and clammy skin), heart blocks and bradycardia, paralysis, coma, seizures, and death.

There is limited clinical information on the management of isosorbide mononitrate overdose; it is advised that venodilatation and arterial hypovolemia from overdose are responded with therapy aimed to increase in central fluid volume. However, this method may be potentially hazardous in patients with renal disease or congestive heart failure: invasive monitoring may be required in these patients. The patient's legs should be passively elevated, and intravenous infusion of normal saline or similar fluid is recommended. Isosorbide mononitrate was shown to be significantly removed from the systemic circulation via hemodialysis. The use of epinephrine or other arterial vasoconstrictors is not recommended.

Precaution

Severe renal or severe hepatic impairment, hypothyroidism, malnutrition, or hypothermia. Caution in patients who are already hypotensive. May aggravate angina caused by hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Tolerance may develop after long-term treatment. Lactation.

Interaction

Hypotensive effects may be increased when used with alcohol or vasodilators. Concurrent use with calcium channel blockers may lead to marked orthostatic hypotension.

Food Interaction

  • Take with or without food. The absorption is unaffected by food.

Volume of Distribution

The volume of distribution is approximately 0.6 L/kg, which is approximately the volume of total body water.

Elimination Route

Upon oral administration, isosorbide mononitrate is rapidly and completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Isosorbide mononitrate has a dose-linear kinetics and the absolute bioavailability is nearly 100%. The Cmax is reached within 30 to 60 minutes following administration.

Half Life

The elimination half-life of isosorbide mononitrate is about 5 hours. The elimination half-life of its metabolites, isosorbide and 2-glucuronide of mononitrate, are 8 hours and 6 hours, respectively.

Clearance

The total body clearance is 115-120 mL/min.

Elimination Route

In a human radio-labelled drug study, about 93% of the total dose was excreted in the urine within 48 hours. Following oral administration of 20 mg, only 2% of isosorbide mononitrate was excreted unchanged in the urine within 24 hours. Among the excreted dose, nearly half of the dose was found de-nitrated in urine as isosorbide and sorbitol: approximately 30% is excreted as isosorbide and about 17% is the 2-glucuronide of mononitrate. These metabolites were not vasoactive or pharmacologically active. Renal excretion was complete after 5 days, and fecal excretion accounted for only 1% of drug elimination.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding use

There are no adequate and controlled studies to date with Isosorbide-5-mononitrate in pregnant women, and the drug should be used during pregnancy only when the potential benefit justified possible risks to the fetus. Execration of Isosorbide-5-mononitrate into human milk is unknown, so precaution should be taken when it is administered to a nursing mother.

Contraindication

It is contraindicated in patients who have shown hypersensitivity or idiosyncratic reactions to other nitrates or nitrites.

Acute Overdose

Symptoms : Most common symptoms are hypotension, throbbing headache, tachycardia, and flushing. Methemoglobinemia may occur with massive doses.

Treatment: Treatment consists of placing patients in recumbent position and administering fluids; alpha-adrenergic vasopressors may be required. Methemoglobinemia should be treated with methyline blue at a dose of 1-2 mg/kg IV slowly.
