Q: Why is Nitroject given sublingually?
A: Nitroject is given sublingually because it is readily absorbed from the oral mucosa. Nitroject is also readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, but due to its large breakdown (extensive first-pass metabolism) in the liver, its bioavailability (fraction of a given dose in an unchanged form that reaches the systemic circulation) is decreased.
Q: Does glyceryl trinitrate work like sildenafil?
A: Both sildenafil and glyceryl trinitrate work by dilation of blood vessels which helps in a better blood flow but the mechanisms are entirely different and they are used for different conditions. Sildenafil is used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction and glyceryl trinitrate is used for the treatment of chest pain.

Q: How does Nitroject relieve angina pectoris?
A: Nitroject belongs to a group of medicines called nitrate vasodilators. It acts by the release of nitric oxide which causes the dilatation (widening) of the blood vessels by relaxing its smooth muscles. This reduces the strain on the heart by making it easier to pump blood. In this manner, Nitroject relieves pain in angina pectoris.
Q: How does Nitroject reduce blood pressure?
A: Nitroject reduces the blood pressure by dilating the blood vessels and decreasing the workload of the heart. However, it is not used for the treatment of high blood pressure.
