Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concern, I would explain that the main possible adverse effects related to isosorb DIN are :dizziness, headache, restlessness, weakness, nausea, low blood pressure.

These adverse effects are encountered rarely in high doses.

I would also advise avoiding concomitant use of some drugs that may lead to potential interactions like : Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, etc..

Other drugs to use with caution would be antihypertensive drugs, because there is a potential risk of low blood pressure, as Isosorb DIN can lower blood pressure.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
