Angised is a vasodilator, which means it works by relaxing the smooth muscle in the walls of blood vessels, allowing them to widen and increase blood flow. It does this by releasing nitric oxide in the blood vessels, which in turn activates an enzyme called guanylate cyclase. Guanylate cyclase then increases the production of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), a chemical that relaxes the smooth muscle cells in blood vessels and increases blood flow.
Angised also dilates the coronary arteries, which are the blood vessels that supply the heart muscle with oxygen and nutrients. By dilating these arteries, Angised can increase blood flow to the heart, relieving the symptoms of angina.
