Q. What is Nimocard Infusion?
Nimocard Infusion belongs to a class of medicines known as calcium channel blockers. Nimocard Infusion is used to prevent any further damage to the brain function which happens after subarachnoid haemorrhage (bleeding around the brain when a weak nerve in the brain bursts).
Q. How does Nimocard Infusion work?
Nimocard Infusion relaxes and widens the blood vessels so that blood can flow easily through them, thereby improving the blood supply to the brain.
