How Molsidomin STADA works

Molsidomin STADA, a cardiovascular drug, acts in a similar fashion to organic nitrates. The SIN-1A metabolite of molsidomine has a pharmacologically active group of nitric oxide, which increases levels of cyclic GMP, and decreases intracellular calcium ions in smooth muscle cells. This leads to relaxation of smooth muscle in the blood vessels, and inhibits platelet aggregation.

Elimination Route

Peak plasma drug concentration (tmax) occurs from 1 to 2 hours after administration.

Clearance

renal excretion is the main route of elimination of the metabolites in humans (90% to 95%) About 2% of the ingested drug is excreted unchanged in the urine.
