Does the effect of Nitroglyn wear off after sometime?

Yes, excessive use of Nitroglyn may cause tolerance which means that Nitroglyn may lose its effectiveness on you. Therefore, doctors usually prescribe the smallest dose required for effective relief of acute angina attacks. Also, it is usually prescribed in morning and afternoon doses to give nitrate-free interval. Take it strictly as per the dosing interval prescribed by your doctor to prevent tolerance and maintain the effectiveness of Nitroglyn.
