Although nitrates have a long history, they still continue to be a significant group of commonly used cardiovasclar drugs. Especially in the treatment of heart failure in the terrain of ischaemic heart disease, where they play an irreplaceable role. Most of the knowledge regarding the effects and administration of these drugs is generally known. However, there exist certain interesting and important aspects that are forgotten with time.
