The antianginal effectivity of a sustained release isosorbiddinitrate Sorbidilat Retard drug was examined by the number of spontaneous attacks and by ergometry with a constant work load in a double blind trial with cross over technique. An effect on the stress duration, on the ST segment depression, on the "double product", on heart rate, and blood pressure could be proved, which is interpreted as an therapeutic advantage of serum against placebo. The number of spontaneous attacks could be reduced in the verum period significantly. Ergometry every 2 hour after drug adminstration shows an oral effectivity of about 10 hours.
