Dosage
The dosage of nitroglycerin should be adjusted according to individual patient requirements and the hemodynamic response monitored. The recommended dose ranges from 10 to 200 mcg/min, although doses up to 400 mcg/min may be required during certain surgical procedures.
Surgery:
A starting dose of 25 mcg/min is recommended for the control of hypertension or induction of controlled hypotension during surgical procedures. This may be titrated up by increments of 25 mcg/min at 5-minute intervals until target blood pressure is stabilized. A dose between 10 and 200 mcg/min is usually sufficient during surgery, although doses up to 400 mcg/min have been required in some cases.
Treatment of perioperative myocardial ischemia is initiated at a dose of 15 to 20 mcg/min, with subsequent increases of 10 to 15 mcg/min until the desired effect is achieved.
Unresponsive Congestive Heart Failure:
The recommended starting dose is 20 to 25 mcg/min. This dose may be reduced to 10 mcg/min or titrated upwards by 20 to 25 mcg/min every 15 to 30 minutes until the desired clinical response is obtained.
Unstable Angina Pectoris:
The recommended initial dose is 10 mcg/min, with titrations of 10 mcg/min increments approximately every 30 minutes according to the patient’s clinical response.
