Ranexa 375 mg prolonged-release tablets.
Prolonged-release tablet.
Pale blue oval-shaped tablet engraved with 375 on one side.
Each tablet contains 375 mg of ranolazine.
For the full list of excipients see section 6.1.
Ranolazine may have some antianginal effects by inhibition of the late sodium current in cardiac cells. This reduces intracellular sodium accumulation and consequently decreases intracellular calcium overload. Ranolazine, via its action to decrease the late sodium current, is considered to reduce these intracellular ionic imbalances during ischaemia. This reduction in cellular calcium overload is expected to improve myocardial relaxation and thereby decrease left ventricular diastolic stiffness.
