Emedinews:Makesure:A patient with suspected MI died after receiving sublingual nitrate.


Situation: A patient with suspected MI died after receiving sublingual nitrate.
Reaction: Oh my God! Why was a history of intake of Viagra drug not taken?
Lesson: Make sure to take a history of Viagra drug intake before giving nitrates, because co–administration of the two drugs can cause a fatal fall in blood pressure.
