• Trimetazidine (35 mg): It optimises heart muscle metabolism by promoting glucose utilisation for energy, reducing fatty acid oxidation. This shift enhances energy production and decreases oxygen consumption by the heart muscle. These actions help improve cardiac efficiency, making it particularly beneficial for individuals with angina and certain heart conditions.
