Ranace-500 Tablet contains Ranolazine (500 mg) and operates in the body through the following mechanisms:

• Reduces Sodium Ion Influx: Ranolazine works by limiting the influx of sodium ions into the heart muscle cells during the late phase of the action potential. This action leads to a decrease in the accumulation of calcium within cells.

• Improves Myocardial Relaxation: By reducing the accumulation of calcium, ranolazine enhances the relaxation of the heart muscle and reduces left ventricular diastolic stiffness.

• Optimises Energy Efficiency: Ranolazine optimises the energy efficiency of the heart. This allows the heart to function effectively with less demand for oxygen, without significantly affecting the heart rate or blood pressure.

• Store your Ranace-500 Tablet in a cool, dry place at room temperature, ideally between 20°C and 25°C.

• Keep the medicine away from direct sunlight and damp conditions to prevent it from getting spoiled.

• Always keep the medicine out of reach of children for their safety.

• Remember that medicines have an expiry date, so make sure you use your Ranace-500 Tablet before it expires.

• Regular physical activity: Engaging in regular exercise can help manage angina by improving cardiovascular health. However, do not overexert yourself; aim for moderate-intensity activities such as brisk walking or cycling.

• Healthy diet: Consuming a heart-healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and low-fat dairy products can help manage coronary artery disease, which is often the underlying cause of chronic angina. Limiting the intake of unhealthy fats and sodium can also be beneficial. Always consult your doctor for personalised advice.
