In Treatment of Angina (heart-related chest pain) Nikosol Tablet helps in prevention as well as treatment of angina.

This reduces the pain and discomfort that angina causes thereby improving your ability to exercise and go about your daily life more easily. This medicine needs to be taken regularly to be effective so keep taking it even if you are not having any angina symptoms.In Treatment of Angina (heart-related chest pain) Nikosol Tablet helps in prevention as well as treatment of angina.
