What's the difference b/w nitroglycerin and nitroprusside, other than that NTG doesn't lead to cyanide toxicity if given over extended periods and has multiple ROAs. When would you use one over the other?
Nitropress is faster than NTG, b/c it directly releases NO, while NTG has to be metabolized by aldehyde dehydrogenase, correct?
Thanks,
Doug
