nitroglycerin and Hyperhidrosis

nitroglycerin has been researched along with Hyperhidrosis in 1 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.

Hyperhidrosis: Excessive sweating. In the localized type, the most frequent sites are the palms, soles, axillae, inguinal folds, and the perineal area. Its chief cause is thought to be emotional. Generalized hyperhidrosis may be induced by a hot, humid environment, by fever, or by vigorous exercise.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Using high-resolution ultrasound, the diameter of the brachial artery at rest and during reactive hyperemia (flow-mediated dilatation, %FMD endothelial-dependent stimulus to vasodilatation), as well as after sublingual administration of nitroglycerin (%NTG endothelium-independent vasodilatation) was measured in 18 subjects (mean age 27+/-5 years) with essential hyperhidrosis and 24 healthy control subjects (mean age 29+/-5 years)."3.73Peripheral vascular endothelial function in essential hyperhidrosis.
