A member asked:
How long will the headache last as the side effects of sublingual nitroglycerine persist?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nitroglycerin works by opening the arteries of the heart, thus reducing the pain. A common side effect is headaches caused by this same medication opening the arteries of the brain. The effect wears off over a few hours.
