Recently the possibility that nitrates inhibit platelet function in man has been explored in vitro and in vivo. We have studied the effect of isosorbide-5-mononitrate (ISMN), a stable and long-acting organic nitrate, on platelet function in vivo. Given orally within the current therapeutic range, the drug has practically no effect on platelet aggregation nor thromboxane generation in platelet-rich plasma in response to ADP, collagen, arachidonate, epinephrine and PAF. Synergistic effects of prostacyclin and ISMN on inhibition of ADP-induced platelet aggregation have been observed. Thus, local inhibition of platelet aggregation might not have been detectable, due to the short half-life in vitro of prostacyclin.
