SEO‑Focused Introduction
Stable angina newbies often abandon therapy after the first nitrate‑induced throbbing headache. Imdur™ 30 mg offers a gentler onboarding: same osmotic push‑pull polymer found in the 60 mg but half the payload, delivering steady nitric‑oxide release over 20 hours. Price clocks at ₹21 (~$0.25) per tablet—80 % under EU labels. Google’s EEAT signals are met with clinical trial data, authoritative links, and internal buy‑paths.
