| ==ADVERSE REACTIONS==
| |
| | |
| Adverse reactions to isosorbide dinitrate are generally dose-related, and almost all of these reactions are the result of isosorbide dinitrate's activity as a [[vasodilator]]. [[Headache]], which may be severe, is the most commonly reported side effect. Headache may be recurrent with each daily dose, especially at higher doses. Transient episodes of lightheadedness, occasionally related to blood pressure changes, may also occur. [[Hypotension]]occurs infrequently, but in some patients it may be severe enough to warrant discontinuation of therapy. [[Syncope]], [[crescendo angina]], and [[rebound hypertension]] have been reported but are uncommon. | |
| | |
| Extremely rarely, ordinary doses of organic nitrates have caused [[methemoglobinemia]] in normal-seeming patients. [[Methemoglobinemia]] is so infrequent at these doses that further discussion of its diagnosis and treatment is deferred (see "OVERDOSAGE").
