Ranolaz Tablet 15

Ranolaz 500 mg Tablet is used to treat angina pectoris by improving blood flow to the heart, reducing cardiac workload, and optimizing heart energy use. It helps prevent chest pain episodes and improves exercise tolerance in people with coronary artery disease.

Here's how you should take Ranolaz Tablet:

• Strictly follow the dosage and timing instructions provided by your doctor for this medication.
• Do not change or exceed the prescribed dose without your doctor's approval.
• Consult your doctor before discontinuing this medication; do not stop taking it without their guidance.
• Adhere to the dietary recommendations given by your doctor.

Ranolaz Tablet is taken orally.

Ranolaz Tablet contains ranolazine (500 mg) and impacts your body through several mechanisms:

• Inhibition of Late Sodium Current: Ranolazine works by blocking the late sodium current in heart muscle cells. This reduces the overload of calcium in these cells when blood flow to the heart is limited, thereby lessening ventricular tension and improving blood flow.
• Optimisation of Energy Metabolism: During periods of limited blood flow to the heart, ranolazine helps to enhance energy metabolism by facilitating glucose oxidation and reducing fatty acid oxidation. This process makes your heart's work more efficient.
• Alpha and Beta-adrenergic Receptor Blocking Effects: Ranolazine exerts some blocking effects on alpha and beta-adrenergic receptors which contribute to its overall beneficial effect in managing angina.

Through these mechanisms, ranolazine increases oxygen supply to the heart muscle, decreases oxygen demand, and ultimately helps prevent and reduce the severity of anginal episodes.

• Store Ranolaz Tablet at room temperature between 20°C to 25°C.
• Keep the medicine in a tightly closed container, protected from light and moisture.
• Place it in a location that is out of reach of children.
• Always check the expiry date and refrain from using the tablet if it is past its use-by date.

• Incorporating heart-healthy foods into your diet can support the management of chronic angina. Opt for whole grains, lean proteins, fruits, vegetables, and omega-3-rich foods such as fish.
• Engage in regular, doctor-approved physical activity. This helps strengthen your heart muscle and promote efficient blood flow.
