When you swallow a nitroglycerin tablet, it is absorbed into your bloodstream through the lining of your mouth and gastrointestinal tract. Nitroglycerin works by relaxing and dilating blood vessels, which helps to increase blood flow to the heart and reduce the workload on the heart. However, swallowing nitroglycerin tablets can sometimes cause side effects such as headaches, dizziness, and low blood pressure. It is important to follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider and seek medical attention if you experience any concerning symptoms.
Well, sweetheart, if you swallow a nitroglycerin tablet, it's gonna do its job and get absorbed into your bloodstream. It'll help relax your blood vessels and improve blood flow to your heart, which is great if you're having chest pain. But if you're just popping them like candy, you might end up with a nasty headache or low blood pressure. So, maybe stick to following the doctor's orders on this one, okay?

Many people are surprised to learn that the nitroglycerin in the tablets is the same chemical compound as the nitroglycerin that is used as an explosive. The chemical compound is very volatile, which means that it is difficult to contain in tablet form. By handling the tablets, the nitroglycerin may be absorbed through the skin from the tablet. Briefly touching the tablets should not be a concern, but they should not be handled excessively. Also, make sure nitroglycerin tablets are stored in a cool, dry place - not the car or the bathroom cabinet. Discard the bottle 6 months after it is first opened, as the tablets may lose their effectiveness.
