Nitroglycerin is primarily used to treat angina and heart conditions by dilating blood vessels, but it is not effective for treating strokes. Strokes are typically caused by a blockage (ischemic stroke) or bleeding (hemorrhagic stroke) in the brain, and the treatment approach differs significantly. For ischemic strokes, clot-busting medications like tPA are used, while hemorrhagic strokes require different management strategies. Therefore, nitroglycerin is not indicated for stroke treatment.
