What does it do?

Ranolazine is a medication that helps regulate the metabolism of cardiac muscle cells and is used in the treatment of chronic stable angina. This ingredient improves oxygen supply to the heart, contributing to the relief of chest pain.

Ranolazine enhances the energy efficiency of cardiac muscle by regulating the balance of sodium and calcium ions within heart cells. This reduction in chest pain occurs when there is insufficient oxygen supply to the heart.
