Eldery: There are no special dosage requirements for elderly patients, but as with all medicines the lowest effective dose should be used. Nicorandil should be administered with care, using low starting dosages, in the elderly.
Children: Not recommended. Nicorandil should be used with caution in patients with serious hepatic dysfunction.
Hepatic Impairment: Dose reduction may be necessary.
ln the case of overdosage, the likely symptomatology may be peripheral vasodilation with a fall in blood pressure and reflex tachycardia. In such an event, monitoring of cardiac function and general supportive measures should be used. If not successful, circulating plasma volume should be increased by substitution of fluid. ln life-threatening situations, administration of vasopressors should be considered.
