Abstract

The effects of intravenous SIN-1 (1 mg) and sublingual isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) (5 mg) were studied in 12 patients with stable left ventricular failure (NYPHA class III-IV) secondary to ischemic, hypertensive, or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. Data were collected during two periods separated by a washout phase, in a randomized, crossover, double-blind and double-placebo design. Heart rate was modified neither by SIN-1 nor by ISDN. A nonsignificant increase in cardiac output and decrease in aortic pressure were observed with both drugs.
