nitroglycerin and Ergot Poisoning

nitroglycerin has been researched along with Ergot Poisoning in 8 studies

Nitroglycerin: A volatile vasodilator which relieves ANGINA PECTORIS by stimulating GUANYLATE CYCLASE and lowering cytosolic calcium. It is also sometimes used for TOCOLYSIS and explosives.
nitroglycerol : A nitrate ester that is glycerol in which nitro group(s) replace the hydrogen(s) attached to one or more of the hydroxy groups.
nitroglycerin : A nitroglycerol that is glycerol in which the hydrogen atoms of all three hydroxy groups are replaced by nitro groups. It acts as a prodrug, releasing nitric oxide to open blood vessels and so alleviate heart pain.

"Ergotism is an ischaemic complication due to vasoconstriction throughout the body due to ingestion of ergotamine."1.48Headache in an HIV-Positive Patient: Dangerous Interaction. ( Garner, O; Iardino, A; Lorusso, G; Lotta, F, 2018)
"In both these models of ergotism, the directly acting vasodilator nitroglycerine (NTG) effectively relieved the ergotamine-induced arterial contractions."1.26Nitroglycerin for ergotism. Experimental studies in vitro and in migraine patients and treatment of an overt case. ( Gøthgen, I; Husum, B; Jacobsen, E; Ostergaard, JR; Rasmussen, JP; Tfelt-Hansen, P, 1982)
